Born at Paris, 1853. Son of Joseph Louis. Apprenticed to the trade at Mirecourt, 1865. Succeeded to father’s business at Paris, 1870. Went into partnership with Dehommais until 1882. Worked alone, 1882. Died 1933. Produced about 50 instruments yearly entirely personal. Modelling and workmanship worthy of analysis and comparison with any French examples. At no point do we see any desire for eccentric distinction. £30 (1925). Dehommais was an amateur who experimented in varnish, this being laid on the inner side and practically served to merely alcoholise and impregnate the wood for premature ageing, etc. About 100 instruments were made during the partnership of ten years. Awarded Exhibition medals and diplomas. £80, 1959. ShopsDiscussion board forErmain, |
