Max Dölling inherited established family methods and worked through the difficult middle decades of the twentieth century. His production remained rooted in practical Saxon construction and French-inspired form.
Seen within the wider history of german school bow making, the surviving work associated with Max Dölling is best understood through materials, construction, stylistic detail and comparison with authenticated examples. A brand alone is never conclusive.
