Camillo Camilli (c. 1704 – 1754)[1] was a noted master luthier in the 18th century. His instruments are prized by string players to this day. Most were made in Mantua. He was a pupil of Zanotti but was mainly influenced by Pietro Guarneri of Mantova, the grandfather of Mantovan violin making. We notice Guarneri's influence in Camilli's, work particularly in the outline, the purfling, and the way Camillo cuts the notches of the f-hole.
