| May 15, 2010 - January 2, 2011 | Medieval Glass for Popes, Princes, and Peasants
This is the first exhibition in the United States devoted to glass made for the daily use of peasants, princes, and popes in the Middle Ages. During this period, Europe was transformed, as was the world of glassmaking. After the fall of Rome, all but the simplest techniques were forgotten. But, over the centuries, the quality and quantity of glassware increased. In the later Middle Ages, local products were joined by luxurious glasses imported from the Islamic world, and by the 15th century the stage was set for the golden age of Venetian glassmaking. Included in Museum admission. ...more |
