plus grand luthier fran\u00e7ais de mandolines du XVIII\u00e8me si\u00e8cle. Un grand nombre des mandolines de cette \u00e9poque parvenues jusqu\u2019\u00e0 nous sont de sa main. N\u00e9 vers 1730 \u00e0 Mirecourt, il est form\u00e9 par Lambert. Les \u00e9tiquettes pr\u00e9sentes sur ses instruments nous permettent de le situer \u00e0 Bordeaux \u00e0 partir de 1754, puis \u00e0 Paris au plus tard en 1761, au 270 rue Saint-Martin.

Dans les derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es de sa vie &#8211; il meurt en 1789 &#8211; il est aussi mentionn\u00e9 comme marchand et \u00e9diteur de musique (de 1788 \u00e0 1789), r\u00e9sidant \u201crue Saint-Honor\u00e9 pr\u00e8s la rue de la Sourdi\u00e8re Cour du grand Charoi\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Son nom appara\u00eet dans l\u2019Almanach musical de 1779, en tant que ma\u00eetre de cistre exer\u00e7ant rue de la Lune, dans la maison de l\u2019avocat Ma\u00eetre Cordier<a id=\"_ftnref2\" href=\"#_ftn2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a>.

On peut notamment en observer au <em>Musikmuseet <\/em>de Copenhague, au <em>Kunsthistorisches Museum<\/em> de Vienne, ou encore au Mus\u00e9e des Instruments de Musique de Bruxelles. Sans oublier le Mus\u00e9e de la Musique de Paris qui, comme d\u00e9j\u00e0 mentionn\u00e9, conserve deux mod\u00e8les \u00e0 six cordes doubles, dont une mandoline r\u00e9alis\u00e9e vers 1760, qui pr\u00e9sente des similitudes stylistiques avec la mandole (ou grande mandoline) de la vente du 13 avril 2024. On retrouve en effet, sur les deux instruments, le m\u00eame type de chevalet et de moustache, ainsi que la m\u00eame succession de filets d\u2019\u00e9b\u00e8ne et d\u2019ivoire sur les bords de la table.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Toutefois, la mandole de la vente Vichy Ench\u00e8res est orn\u00e9e d\u2019une rosace plus sophistiqu\u00e9e, constitu\u00e9e d\u2019une alternance de filets d\u2019\u00e9b\u00e8ne et d\u2019ivoire dessinant, en leur centre, des rectangles que l\u2019on retrouve \u00e9galement sur le chevalet. Notre mandole se distingue \u00e9galement par son placage de filets d\u2019\u00e9b\u00e8ne et d\u2019ivoire recouvrant la poign\u00e9e, l\u2019arri\u00e8re et le devant de la t\u00eate &#8211; un vaste d\u00e9cor dont l\u2019instrument du Mus\u00e9e de la Musique est d\u00e9pourvu. On notera que l\u2019instrument de Vichy Ench\u00e8res pr\u00e9sente une t\u00eate de type napolitain et non plus milanais, permettant de situer sa r\u00e9alisation autour de 1760-1770. En outre, cette datation s\u2019appuie sur la pr\u00e9sence de l\u2019estampille, \u201cSAUNIER \/ A PARIS\u201d, sur la brague. Or, on rappellera que le luthier s\u2019\u00e9tablit \u00e0 Paris autour de 1761.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-12 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-18-\u00a9j-beylard-v-luc-agence-phar.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" data-id=\"24199\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-18-\u00a9j-beylard-v-luc-agence-phar-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Mandole d'Edmond SAUNIER Instrument mis en vente par Vichy Ench\u00e8res le 13 avril 2024 \u00a9 J.

En effet, Edmond Saunier fait partie des luthiers fran\u00e7ais de l\u2019\u00e9poque qui fabriquaient des mandolines d\u2019apr\u00e8s des mod\u00e8les italiens. Cependant, il s\u2019en distingue, \u00e0 l\u2019image de la mandole de la vente du 13 avril 2024, en dotant notamment ses instruments de tables plates et de chevalets. Les mandolines de Saunier r\u00e9v\u00e8lent un souci du d\u00e9tail in\u00e9gal\u00e9, et sont orn\u00e9es de filets et de &#8220;pistagnes&#8221; typiquement parisiennes. Poursuivant sa qu\u00eate d&#8217;innovation, Saunier transcende les mod\u00e8les existant en exp\u00e9rimentant de nouvelles techniques de construction. Il fabrique ainsi plusieurs types de mandolines, \u201ccomme la mandoline \u00e0 cordes en boyau, au moins deux mod\u00e8les de transition et exp\u00e9rimentaux, et enfin les mandolines \u00e0 cordes m\u00e9talliques d\u2019apr\u00e8s les exemples romains et napolitains.

greatest French mandolin maker of the 18th century. Many of the mandolins from this period still in existence today are entirely by his hand. He was born around 1730 in Mirecourt, and trained with Lambert. The labels on his instruments indicate that he was active in Bordeaux from 1754, then in Paris no later than 1761, at 270 rue Saint-Martin. He is indeed listed at this address in a legal document dated 30 October 1761, relating to the apprenticeship of a man named Jacques Fran\u00e7ois<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>. He moved to rue Tiquetonne around 1770, before settling on rue des Prouvaires, near rue Saint-Honor\u00e9, from 1773 to 1783. In the last years of his life (he died in 1789) he is also mentioned as a merchant and publisher of music (from 1788 to 1789), residing \u201crue Saint-Honor\u00e9 pr\u00e8s la rue de la Sourdi\u00e8re Cour du grand Charoi\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His name appears in the <em>Almanach musical<\/em> of 1779, as a cittern maker exercising on rue de la Lune, in the house of the lawyer Ma\u00eetre Cordier<a id=\"_ftnref2\" href=\"#_ftn2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a>. if this is indeed the same maker. As an illustration of his distinguished status, it is believed Edmond Saunier was also the music teacher of Queen Marie-Antoinette, between 1783 to 1789<a id=\"_ftnref3\" href=\"#_ftn3\"><sup>[3]<\/sup><\/a>, and of Princess Elisabeth of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Archives Nationales de Paris, Minutier central, Etude XCVII, liasse 386<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref2\" id=\"_ftn2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a><em> Almanach Musical de 1779<\/em>, p.1101<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref3\" id=\"_ftn3\"><sup>[3]<\/sup><\/a> Sinier de Ridder, <em>Les mandolines fran\u00e7aises 1750-1950, Exceptions culturelles et usages de lutherie<\/em>, 2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The existence of a guitar-lute made by Edmond Saunier for Marie-Antoinette around 1770 would confirm this theory. The queen was very fond of the mandolin, as Lafont d&#8217;Aussonne tells us in 1824: \u201cwe danced in the afternoon at Trianon to the sound of the mandolin and the tambourine\u201d<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Edmond Saunier had several apprentices, including Fran\u00e7ois-Nicolas Fourrier, known as Nicolas (1758-1816), aged 12 in 1770, in Paris. However, his best-known student is undoubtedly Fran\u00e7ois-Louis Pique (1758-1822), one of the key figures of the future Parisian school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saunier is probably related to the Saunier dynasty of Parisian cabinetmakers of the 18th century, the most famous member of which was Claude-Charles Saunier (1735-1807).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Gaspard-Louis Lafont d&#8217;Aussonne, <em>M\u00e9moires secrets et universelles des malheurs et de la mort de la reine de France<\/em>, 1824<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-24 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/04-g-dagoty-peintre-marie-antoinette-chambre-1775-chateau-versailles.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"600\" data-id=\"24165\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/04-g-dagoty-peintre-marie-antoinette-chambre-1775-chateau-versailles.jpg\" alt=\"Gautier-Dagoty, Le peintre portraiturant Marie Antoinette dans sa chambre, 1775, Ch\u00e2teau de Versailles\" class=\"wp-image-24165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/04-g-dagoty-peintre-marie-antoinette-chambre-1775-chateau-versailles.jpg 440w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/04-g-dagoty-peintre-marie-antoinette-chambre-1775-chateau-versailles-220x300.jpg 220w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/04-g-dagoty-peintre-marie-antoinette-chambre-1775-chateau-versailles-73x100.jpg 73w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Gautier-Dagoty, Le peintre portraiturant Marie Antoinette dans sa chambre, 1775, Ch\u00e2teau de Versailles  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"557\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"24173\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-557x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Edmond Saunier, Guitare-luth de Marie Antoinette, collection particuli\u00e8re\" class=\"wp-image-24173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-557x1024.jpg 557w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-163x300.jpg 163w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-768x1411.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-836x1536.jpg 836w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere-54x100.jpg 54w, https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/05-e-saunier-guitare-luth-marie-antoinette-ccollection-particuliere.jpg 871w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Edmond Saunier, Guitare-luth de Marie Antoinette, collection particuli\u00e8re<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/255-1-violon-francois-louis-pique-c2a9jh-bayle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3312\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/255-1-violon-francois-louis-pique-c2a9jh-bayle-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Violon de Fran\u00e7ois-Louis PIQUE Fait \u00e0 Paris vers 1800\/1805 Instrument mis en vente par Vichy Ench\u00e8res le 5 d\u00e9cembre 2013 \u00a9 J.H.

The example in Queen Marie-Antoinette\u2019s possession is sufficient evidence of this fact. After his death, his instruments continued to be sought after, as evidenced by the collection of Count Eug\u00e8ne de Bricqueville and that of the Bernardels. Indeed, an alto mandolin from 1780 was loaned by E. Bernardel to the Paris Retrospective Exhibition in 1889, and another, from 1764, belonging to Valentine Bernardel, was loaned to the Paris Exhibition of 1900 (no. 123)<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Ren\u00e9 Vannes, <em>Dictionnaire universel des luthiers<\/em>, 1951, p.316<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Today, we find a wide range of instruments made by Edmond Saunier in major museum collections.

More surprisingly, the Museum of Popular Music (MuPop) in Montlu\u00e7on has a Saunier hurdy-gurdy from 1767.<br>Finally, it is worth noting that Saunier was also a maker of guitars and violins. For instance, the maker Albert Jacquot owned a \u201cvery beautiful guitar with an ivory rosette inlaid with gold and silver\u201d by Saunier, dated 1773<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Albert Jacquot,<em> La lutherie lorraine et fran\u00e7aise depuis ses origines jusqu\u2019\u00e0 nos jours<\/em>, 1912<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Edmond Saunier and the mandolins<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-26 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-2-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"24143\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-2-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Mandole d'Edmond SAUNIER Instrument mis en vente par Vichy Ench\u00e8res le 13 avril 2024 \u00a9 C.

There are examples of these in the <em>Musikmuseet<\/em> in Copenhagen, at the <em>Kunsthistorisches Museum<\/em> in Vienna, the Musee des Instruments de Musique in Brussels, as well as the Musee de la Musique in Paris which, as mentioned above, keeps two examples with six double strings, including a mandolin made around 1760, which is similar in style to the mandola (or large mandolin) in the sale on 13 April 2024. Indeed, both instruments have the same type of bridge and moustachios, as well as the same pattern of ebony and ivory purfling on the edges of the front.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>However, the mandola from the Vichy Ench\u00e8res sale features a more elaborate rosette, made up of alternating ebony and ivory purfling, drawing, in their centre, rectangles which are also found on the bridge. Our mandola also stands out for its ebony and ivory purfling veneer covering the handle, the back and the front of the head \u2013 rich decoration of which the instrument at the <em>Musee de la Musique<\/em> instrument is devoid. The Vichy Ench\u00e8res instrument has a Neapolitan-style head, instead of the older Milanese type, allowing us to date its production to around 1760-1770. The brand \u201cSAUNIER \/ A PARIS\u201d on the back of the head confirms this dating, as it is consistent with the maker setting up shop in Paris around 1761.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-27 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-18-\u00a9j-beylard-v-luc-agence-phar.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" data-id=\"24199\" src=\"https:\/\/vichy-encheres.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2024-04-13-vcp-2382-11-mandole-saunier-edmond-18-\u00a9j-beylard-v-luc-agence-phar-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Mandole d'Edmond SAUNIER Instrument mis en vente par Vichy Ench\u00e8res le 13 avril 2024 \u00a9 J.

Indeed, Edmond Saunier was one of the French makers of the time to make mandolins based on Italian models. However, he distinguished himself, as with the mandola in the sale on 13 April 2024, by fitting his instruments with flat fronts, fixed bridges and gut strings. Saunier mandolins reveal an unparalleled attention to detail, and are decorated with typically Parisian purfling and \u201cpistagnes\u201d. In his quest for innovation, Saunier went beyond copying existing models, and experimented with new construction techniques. In doing so, he made several types of mandolins, \u201csuch as mandolins with gut strings, at least two transitional and experimental models, and finally the metal-stringed mandolins based on Roman and Neapolitan examples. Therefore, it is clear the mandolin was still undergoing an evolution in France in the 1770s and 1780s.\u201d<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Alex Timmerman dans Sinier de Ridder, <em>Les mandolines fran\u00e7aises 1750-1950, Exceptions culturelles et usages de lutherie<\/em>, 2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Whether they feature a bent front for metal strings or a straight one for gut strings, his mandolins attest to the breadth and depth of his creative genius.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Edmond Saunier was at the forefront of innovation and was gifted with exceptional skills; he designed double-front models, the first of their kind, and implemented bracing inspired by the English orpharion<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>, arranged in a fan shape to produce a unique sound. By integrating innovative bracing, refining his models and developing elaborate purfling, Edmond Saunier infused his creations with modernity, as with the mandola in the Vichy Ench\u00e8res sale on 13 April 2024. Its technical and visual qualities are particularly in evidence due to its remarkable condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Sinier de Ridder, <em>Les mandolines fran\u00e7aises 1750-1950, Exceptions culturelles et usages de lutherie<\/em>, 2023, p.24<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The French mandolin<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The mandolin, which is often associated with Italy and Vivaldi, descends from the mandora, which was in use in large parts of Europe from the 13th century. We know in particular that, from 1563, the Queen of Navarre, Jeanne d&#8217;Albret, had at her court a valet who played the mandora<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>. After falling into oblivion, the instrument reappeared in France around 1750, and was re-introduced by Italian musicians. Indeed, it is largely thanks to the popularity of Italian opera, in which the instrument was regularly played as accompaniment to the voice, that the French expressed a renewed interest for the mandolin. From then on, the instrument quickly became a symbol of refinement and good taste, and was associated with Italian virtuosos. One of the key figures behind the rise of the mandolin was Carlo Sodi, a talented Roman mandolinist. He arrived in Paris in 1749 to join the opera company of the <em>Com\u00e9die Italienne<\/em>, as a violinist and mandolinist, and he captivated Parisian audiences from his first appearances. The Mercure de France praised his performances, underlining his deserved success and his influence on eminent figures of the music scene, such as Madame Favart. The Almanach de Paris of 1775 reads: \u201cSordi taught singing to Madame Favart and accompanied her on the mandolin at the <em>Com\u00e9die Italienne<\/em>\u201d<a id=\"_ftnref2\"

He became a mandolin teacher to the Duke of Chartres and performed to acclaim at the <em>Concert Spirituel<\/em> in 1760.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a example of the preference for Italian education amongst the French bourgeoisie, the terms &#8220;mandolin&#8221; and &#8220;mandola&#8221; were often used interchangeably. The growing popularity of the instrument created a high demand for good instruments and, although they were initially imported from Italy, the French eventually began manufacturing them. Makers such as Jean Nicolas Lambert, Nicolas Peru, Pierre Levinville and of course, Edmond Saunier, followed the Italian tradition while introducing innovations in the construction of mandolins, as evidenced by this mandola originating from an important European collection<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow
