Seasons by Anastasiya, Summer
The cases of the "Seasons by Anastasiya" line are a product exclusively thought for the most demanding musicians, to protect and hold their most precious violin. The products of the line, born through the collaboration between the violinist Anastasiya Petryshak and B&C, first came to life because of Petryshak’s desire to interpret and express the famous Four Seasons by Vivaldi, not only in music but also in image. «I felt a strong desire to paint the Seasons, to give colour to its notes and to shape the sonnet’s words» the artist says.
Four original patterns, designed by the violinist, one for each season and printed on the cases by Bogaro& Clemente. One hundred pieces limited edition, completely handcrafted by B&C, numbered and signed by Petryshak.
The first case is dedicated to Summer: turtledoves, goldfinches, cuckoos, bees and wheat are painted on the external shell with warm tones. The design also uses precious fragments of Vivaldi’s nephew manuscript and depicts in the back the exact Stradivari violin "Toscano".
«I was inspired by the sonnet’s words "Sotto dura stagion dal sole accesa...", from which Vivaldi took inspiration when composing the seasons» Anastasiya goes on telling, «I tried to transmit the Maestro’s energy with a careful eye for detail to contemporary’s aesthetics, thus connecting past and present».
Crafted in carbon and with local and structural reinforcements with the internal soul in cork which serves to improve the thermal insulation and rigidity.
The perimetrical seal, exclusive design by B&C, is dust-proof and waterproof as per class IP-67. Made with two carrying handles and mounting hooks for shoulder strap with double combination locking. Inside, on-top of the lid there is a fastening system for four bows. On the inside next to where the violin would be positioned, you will also find a practical drawer with lid, serving as storage for the back support of the violin and other accessories. There is also a three slot penholder. The microfibre cover is wrapped in silk to add a luxury and protective touch to the violin.
Thus, every individual case of the "Seasons by Anastasiya" line is "the perfect home for your violin", as the artist tells: «I fell in love with Bogaro&Clemente products. After a few weeks of work, sharing and confronting different prototypes, the first product dedicated to Summer, Music, Vivaldi and to life was ready. We thought at every little detail to have the violin felt loved and cared for!»
The technology of Bogaro&Clemente is enhanced by the exclusive and original illustration designs by Petryshak herself, used for the exterior and for the protective cover embellished by the premium silk quality.
