The magnificent pieces of Gallé glass reproduced in this volume are drawn from the sales catalogues of Christie, Manson & Woods, the international auctioneers, and represent the finest of Gallé's art. The book also includes extensive extracts from contemporary journals and Gallé sales mate-rials, as well as examples of recent prices.
Though Gallé produced various other decorative objects for the home, including furniture and faience, his lasting fame rests on his revolutionary creations in glass. This volume, which examines the decorative influences and techniques that were responsible for these achievements, is indispensable for enthusiasts and collectors of glass and Art Nouveau.
Alastair Duncan and Georges de Bartha are specialists on Gallé glass at Christie's in New York and Geneva, respectively, and are experts on the Art Nouveau style.
