GUTH Löwi aka Marcus Franziskus:

"The name Markus Franziskus Guth was found between 1750 and 1810 in the market town of Koschirch, near Prague. He was a shoemaker. When Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a guest at the Betramka estate, he ordered a pair of buckle shoes. Betramka belonged to the Duschek family, whom Mozart had met in Vienna. Duschek was a renowned pianist, his wife an opera singer. They invited Mozart to Prague, and it was there, in the Villa Betramka, that he composed "Don Giovanni"."
