EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Ebstorp Cup" a stunning piece of silver and vermeil artwork created by Franz Fischer in the late 16th century. Standing at an impressive height of 69 cm, this exquisite cup is part of a private collection. Adorned with intricately engraved cups featuring delicate tracery on an amati background, the elongated vase-shaped barrel is further enhanced with pearls and winding patterns. Although the lid is missing its allegorical figure, it still retains its beauty and charm. Notable details include engravings on the edge and cover depicting initials GW topped with a crown. The foot and edge also bear distinct punches, while a decorative strich can be found underfoot. This elaborate decoration adds to the overall ornamental appeal of the cup. The combination of baroque elements, floral motifs, gilded accents, and intricate craftsmanship make this piece truly remarkable. Its polylobed design features lobes that are beautifully parcel gilt for added visual interest. "The Ebstorp Cup" serves as both a functional vessel and an artistic masterpiece. Its finial-topped lid adds elegance to its already ornate appearance. With its rich history and meticulous detailing, this silver gilt chalice stands as a testament to Fischer's skillful artistry during his time. (Photo credit: eChristies Images; German)
