Excerpt: The Muntz Stradivarius is an antique violin crafted by Antonio Stradivari of Cremona (1644-1737) in 1736. The label affixed to this instrument bears the inscription, “d’anni 92 ” (92 years old), possibly handwritten by Stradivari himself. It has also been suggested that Count Cozio di Salabue, a subsequent owner, made this inscription. The Muntz which has a solid reputation for its excellent condition and tonal quality, takes its name from a man who owned it in the late 1800s, H. M. Muntz. He was a collector and amateur violinist who lived in Birmingham , England . The Muntz , among the last of the instruments made by Stradivari, is currently owned by the Nippon Music Foundation .References (URLs online) Websites (URLs online) Muntz Stradivarius at Cozio.comA hyperlinked version of this chapter is at The Distrest Poet is an oil painting produced sometime around 1736 by the British artist William Hogarth . Reproduced as an etching and engraving , it was published in 1741 from a third state plate produced in 1740. The scene was probably inspired by Alexander Pope ‘s satirical poem The Dunciad . It depicts a scene in a small, dingy attic room where a poet sits at his desk in the dormer and, scratching his head, stares at the papers on the desk before him, evidently looking for inspiration to complete the poem he is writing. Near him sits his wife darning clothes, surprised by the entrance of a milkmaid, who impatiently demands payment of debts.Background The Enraged Musician .The engraving of The Distrest Poet in its third state was issued on 15 December 1741 as a companion piece to The Enraged Musician , a comic scene of a violinist driven to distraction by the noise from the street outside his practice room. The initial plate for The Distrest Poet was produced soon after
