The magic of the Stradivarius: the most beautiful violins in the world
18. The Habeneck
It's not just Antonio Stradivari who's responsible for creating the best violins in the world. His son, Francesco Stradivari, was also a talented luthier whose instruments are highly regarded - if not slightly eclipsed by his father's superior models. This is one of the violins made by him in 1734.
