Venetian glass captivated Renaissance and early modern Europe. In their workshops on the island of Murano, Venetian glassmakers used the finest materials, outstanding skill, and a flair for design to create luxurious glassware for use and display. All over Europe, possession of Venetian glass was regarded as a sign of wealth and sophistication. This lavishly illustrated book was created to accompany a major exhibition of Venetian-style glass at The Corning Museum of Glass.
