Alfredo Gianotti

Milanino

Biography

Alfredo Gianotti was a maker active in Milanino during the latter twentieth century. His documented output spans at least from 1976 to 1989, with recorded opus numbers ranging from 0031 to 217 [1][2][3]. He produced both violins and violas, with back lengths consistent with standard proportions: violins measuring 35.5–35.9 cm [1][2] and a viola at 42.3 cm [3]. Gianotti branded his instruments with maker's marks on the button—either his monogram or the initials A.G.U. [1][2]—and inscribed detailed labels identifying opus number, maker name, date, and location of manufacture.
