Carlo Giuseppe Plura( 3 January
1663- 14 April 1737) was a Swiss- Italian stucco artist and sculptor.
He was born in Lugano and died in Borgo San Dalmazzo.

Daniel Franco
Daniel Franco( born November 11, 1971 in Los Angeles, California) is an American fashion designer.
He achieved notability for appearing in three seasons of" Project Runway".

Hieronymus Payer
Hieronymus Payer( 13 February 1787 in Vienna- Meidling; died 17 August 1845 in the same place) was an Austrian composer and pianist.
Ferdinando Garimberti
Garimberti, Ferdinando
(6 January 1894 – 26 March 1982) was an Italian violin maker.
Garimberti was born in Mamiano di Traversetolo.
He studied with Romeo Antoniazzi, then Riccardo Antoniazzi; he then worked for Giuseppe Pedrazzini and Leandro Bisiach, and later set up independently in Milan.
Between 1927 and 1949 his instruments won important awards at the exhibitions held at Rome and Cremona.
He taught at the International School of Cremona from 1963 to 1966.
He died in Milan.
During his long career his models and style remained almost unvaried.
His work is meticulous, very precise and clean, always extremely careful and very elegant.
He was discriminating in his choice of wood and he clearly preferred to fashion the backs out of one piece.
He applied the varnish with great skill; this varies in consistency and colour depending on the period.
The most usual colour is a beautiful red-orange which sometimes becomes lighter towards the centre but is sometimes a darker red.
He also did much repair work and was considered an expert in old Italian violins.
He often marked his instruments with a signed label and a brand on the inside.
Ferdinando Garimberti, along with Ansaldo Poggi and Giuseppe Ornati, are considered the top 3 modern Italian makers of the 20th century.
Many soloists, past and present, own Garimberti and Poggi instruments as they function as good facsimile Stradivaris and Guarneris.
As we have seen in the recent sold prices of instruments by Ferdinando Garimberti, Ansaldo Poggi, and Giuseppe Ornati, their investment potential is huge.
