DES OBJETS EN VERRE DU 21EME SIECLE?
16th century
MID 1800'S
1900
... NOT EXACTLY!
When we were in London last week, we visited the Victoria and Albert Museum. Among the permanent exhibits the glass "rooms" offer stunning pieces. The variety of techniques, the colors, the finishes, the evolution from very detailed items all the way to the modern, very minimal ones of the 20th century.
What struck me most, however, is the amazing modernity of certain very old pieces, including this one:
25BC, Roman
au revoir.
If you had not put the dates below the images, I would never have guessed when the vases were made. Stunning!
