John Dilworth

DOMENICUS, Joannes Worked circa. 1600 Rome Italy. Dominican priest known from the label of one small-sized violin, the date of which is barely legible and some sources give as 1570, others 1610. Henley expands this to cover a multiple production of small violins, for which there is no evidence at all. Johannes Domenicus / Ord.fratrum / Romae 1570/1610
