Julius Alois Hubicka (b. 1886 d. 1955) was well regarded for his useof the greatest Cremonese instruments for inspiration. Hubicka also produced wonderful models of the great French, and Czech makers along with his own model. The imitations he produced were extremely well made but never misleading, and his models in particular were always oil-varnished a rich red, or yellow. Hubicka spent several years studying in Moscow with Frantisek Spidlen before establishing himself in Prague in 1925. This violin in particular is one of Hubicka’s personal models, and an amazing example of the skill this luthier possessed. This violin is varnished a stunning red and is paired with a beautifully flamed 1-piece back. The instrument produces an extremely complex sound,full of color, and resonance in all registers. The lower register has depth and richness, and the upper register is met with a singing clarity that continues to blossom as you move up the register. It is in remarkably fine condition. The instrument is particularly easy to play, as it requires almost no work to get it to sound. This violin would be the perfect companion to an exceptional player.
