Molitor Stradivarius
The Molitor Stradivarius is an antique violin made by Italian luthier Antonio Stradivari of Cremona in 1697, the very beginning of the maker's celebrated "Golden" period. It bears the label "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis / Faciebat Anno 1697" and is branded to the lower rib, "Curtis Phila."
Thought to have been owned by Napoleon Bonaparte, the violin belonged to 19th-century Parisian socialite and arts patron Juliette Récamier until 1804, when it came into the possession of a general in Napoleon's army
