I has been a while since our last quiz, but here's a new one courtesy of 562randy. Send your answers to info@cozio.com. The first five to submit the correct answers will receive a free 1-month cozio.com subscription (or an extension to your existing subscription). And remember, you can also earn a 1-month subscription by contributing the next quiz.

This quiz concerns two violins by two different makers, which were made 230 years apart. The first is named after a great artist who never owned the violin; the second is said to be modeled after the first and made for a collector.

Identify the two violins by their Cozio ID numbers.

This one's a little tricky, so good luck!

I went away for a couple days and when I returned, there were not 5, but 6, correct answers in my inbox, so all 6 have received a free month subscription to Cozio.com. The two instruments are the 'Titian' Strad of 1715 and the copy made by Sacconi  in 1945. As one responder noted, there is another correct answer because Sacconi also made a copy of the 'Da Vinci' Strad for Toscha Seidel, but since the Sacconi copy is not yet in the Cozio database, it would have proved didfficult to submit the instrument's Cozio ID number.

Congratualations to the winners: mlv, pharus, user14360, wth, viola da gamba & Cremona99. And thanks once again 526randy for providing this quiz.
