Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: This display at the Corning Museum of Glass's "35 Centuries of Glass" gallery shows a popular trend in Venetian glassware of the late 19th century that was attributed especially to artisans on the island of Murano. Expanding on the themes and techniques of Renaissance-era trick glass, these fanciful pieces - ostensibly used as vases and drinking vessels, but almost purely decorative in practice - comprise fanciful depictions of winged horses, dragons, and sea creatures executed in colored glass with applied gold leaf and other luxurious media. Salviati & Co., a particularly prolific producer of such pieces, was the source of most of those shown here. As seen during an April 2022 visit to the museum. |
