| Description |
English: The painstakingly anatomically accurate lampworked glass figurines of invertebrate sea creatures produced by the Dresden father-and-son team of Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka came to the attention of the Botanical Museum of Harvard University in 1887, who hired them to produce a range of models of plant life - including the fruits seen here - for use as teaching tools. Several thousand such figurines, unmatched in delicacy and complexity, were made. As seen in the "35 Centuries of Glass" gallery during a March 2022 visit to the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York. |
