Gaetano Antoniazzi (August 7, 1825 – August 1, 1897) was an Italian violin-maker.

 

Gaetano Antoniazzi 是一位出生在義大利的製琴家。

 

Antoniazzi was born in Cremona, where he learned his craft in the Ceruti workshop before establishing himself in Milan in 1870 and bringing with him the Cremonese tradition of his teachers Enrico and Giovanni Battista Ceruti. He died in Milan.

 

他出生在義大利的Cremona，並且他在那的Geruti工作室裡學習了製琴的技巧。他在1870年的時候搬到了Milan並且建立了自己的工作室，同是他也把在Cremona學習向Enrico、Giovanni Battista Ceruti到的技巧也帶了過去，他最後辭世於Milan。

 

It is only from this date until about 1890 that we find instruments signed by him. Gaetano Antoniazzi, along with his sons Riccardo and Romeo trained Leandro Bisiach, and together with the Antoniazzis, Bisiach influenced the creation of a workshop environment that was to dominate early to middle 20th Century Italian violinmaking.

 

目前現今世人所發現的有他的標籤的作品，都是在1890年代之後。他與他的兩個兒子Riccardo和Romeo一起教導了Leandeo Bisiach，而他們這兩大家族：Antoniazzis和Bisiach，在20世紀初期到中期可以說是義大利製琴界的主流，並且深深的影響了工作室的創造環境。

 

The result of this highly successful business model was that Milan became a hotbed of skilled violinmakers. Under this system, many important 20th Century Italian violinmakers received their early training, among them Gaetano Sgarabotto, Giuseppe Ornati, Ferdinando Garimberti, Igino Sderci, Rocchi Sesto, Cipriano Briani, Giuseppe Pedrazzini, Camillo Mandelli, Ferriccio Varagnolo, Camillo Colombo, Vincenzo Cavani, Pietro Paravicini, Albert Moglie, Andrea Bisiach, Carlo Bisiach, Pietro Borghi, Mirco Tarasconi, Leandro Jr. & Giacomo Bisiach, Iginio Siega and Carlo Ferrario.

 

經過了這兩大家族的加持之後，Milan變成了許多富有技巧的製琴師聚集地。在他們的訓練系統下，有許多20世紀重要的製琴大師都是師出其門。例如有：Gaetano Sgarabotto, Giuseppe Ornati, Ferdinando Garimberti, Igino Sderci, Rocchi Sesto, Cipriano Briani, Giuseppe Pedrazzini, Camillo Mandelli, Ferriccio Varagnolo, Camillo Colombo, Vincenzo Cavani, Pietro Paravicini, Albert Moglie, Andrea Bisiach, Carlo Bisiach, Pietro Borghi, Mirco Tarasconi, Leandro Jr. & Giacomo Bisiach, Iginio Siega 以及Carlo Ferrario.

 

Gaetano's work is good, original and spontaneous, but not always very careful. The varnish is yellow-brown or sometimes red-brown in colour. His labels were generally handwritten.

 

Gaetano的作品還算上乘，具有原創性與自我特色，但是並非都是非常精細。漆的顏色大多是黃棕色，偶而也可以看到紅棕色。他的標籤絕大部分是手寫的。
