Late 19th century glassmakers were inspired by ancient art -- especially ancient glass -- that was found in excavating during this time period. Drawing on various qualities of ancient glass, such as techniques, motifs, shapes and colors, Salviati and Co. in Venice produced stunning new creations. By juxtaposing ancient glass with its 19th century counterparts, this exhibition highlights and ancient sources for Salviati and Co. and its creative responses to earlier glassmaking techniques and aesthetics.
