Biographical information

Johan Alamany was member of the Guild of carpenters in Valencia in 1533. This maker’s name strongly suggests him to be among the German tradesman who settled in Valencia at this time.
(In Valencia, violeros formed part of this guild from ≈1482 until 1599, when they seperated from the carpenters.)
