Description
English:
A goblet with cover "vetro a retorti" Facon de Venise, circa 1600 Grey glass with pontil and vertical stripes and spiraled yarns in milk glass. Underside with label "ETH COLLECTION 483". 40 cm high Gedrückter Hohlnodus zwischen Ringscheiben aus klarem Glas. Keulenförmige, mehrfach Provenance: Charles Butler of Warren Wood, CH. A. Butler Esq. Shortgrove, Newport Essex Sold in the Sothebys-auction, Mai 1964 The E.T.H. Collection Bis heute ist nicht ganz klar, wann diese Technik zum ersten Mal genutzt wurde. Im Jahre It´s not totally clear when this special technique was first produced. In 1527 two brothers, Filippo and Bernardo Serena, applied to the Venetian authorities for a patent for a new method of work involving "twists of can". This probably referred to the use of lattimo cables, usually described as work a retorti. The glass illustrated here has a number of parallels, some with covers, some without. The shape is represented in a pattern book of the glasshouse at Beauwelz, in the Southern Netherlands, dating probably from about 1550-1555 and a similar glass is represented in a Netherlands still-life painting of about 1580. A slightly different glass, but with a bowl of the same complex profile, is seen in a still-life by the Antwerp painter Osias Beert. The general type was made in a number of centers working in the Venetian manner (facon de Venise) in Central and Northern Europe, but it seems certain that it was also made in Venice itself for customers in those areas.

Im Jahre 1527 beantragten zwei Brüder, Filippo und Bernardo Serena ein Patent für eine neue Möglichkeit der Glasverarbeitung. Die besondere Form ist bereits in einem Ausstellungskatalog des Glashauses Beauwelz dargestellt und wird um ca. 1550-1555 datiert. Ein ebenfalls ähnlicher Pokal, nur mit anderer Kuppa, ist in einem Stilleben des bekannten Antwerpener Malers Osias Beert zu finden.
