== Ownership ==
The ''Gould'' violin's ownership traces back to 1820 by an owner listed as "Marquis de Villers". Around 1850, a violinist and celebrated and teacher named [[Charles Dancla]] had bought the instrument. In 1880, the violin was now owned by person identified as M. Labitte of Reims which may have been Louis Labitte, a collector of musical manuscripts. The violin was purchased again in 1897, now by a man with the name Rev. Albert Willan until about 1900 when the violin was sold to a polish violinist and composer [[Emil Młynarski|Emil Młynarskyi]]. <ref name=":0" />
In 1918, the violin was bought by the Allgemeine Musikgesselschaft of Basel and used until 1928, where the violin was sold by the [[Caressa & Français|Albert Caressa firm]] to George Gould. This instrument had stayed with George Gould until 1955, where George Gould had given the violin to the Metropolitian Museum of Art where it now currently lies. <ref name=":0" />
== Instrument ==
The ''Gould'' is named after one of it's owners and eventual donor, George Gould, who had given the instrument to the Metropolitian Museum of Art in 1955. <ref name=":0" /> In 1974, a careful decision was made to put the instrument back into a "baroque" form so that artists that specialize in historical performances could use the instrument. <ref name=":0" /> It is considered the only violin by Stradivari that has been returned to a baroque setup and "is regularly used for performance of period repertoire." <ref name=":1" />
