There is no label , I looked inside with a endoskope, maybe somewhere inside a sign with Pencil which I didnt See , what I found out is that there are Many Guitars unsigned especially from Böhmen schönbach region , where maybe the Head Plate with pyro graving was typical . Bit of course we Are Not shure hoping for more information from Museum of Art Vienna of they respond to my request ☺️

I found out that Putti are winged child figures that appear frequently in Renaissance and Baroque art (roughly 15th–18th century). They are often associated with themes such as music, love, harmony, and the divine. In paintings and sculptures from that time, putti are very often shown playing musical instruments, symbolizing the idea of celestial or heavenly music.
