Prague
Hello Jeff,
Barschius is listed in the Clementinum
records as 'Sincoviensis' (the indication of his birth place). I was
told by the Czech historian Josef Smolka (the source of this information)
that this refers to the town of Zinkovy, in W. Bohemia. I fully trust
this source.
There has been a great migration of Italians to Bohemia
in the 1400's, if I am not mistaken, related to the mining trade. Also
Rudolf invited quite a number of Italian artists to his court in the late
1500's, many of whom stayed.
