Stradivari Chronicle Keeps the Instruments’ Paper Trails

Field notes

The project organizes ten instruments around provenance and surviving documentation, including owners, players, and other traces rather than presenting only famous names. Its stated span is 1713–1721, and the archive says it is built from public records. The editorial method is unusually explicit: claims remain attached to sources, while uncertainty is kept visible instead of being smoothed into a single authoritative story. English and Korean navigation are both present.
