EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of American decorative arts from the 19th century. The Cup plate, created in 1800/40 by an unknown artist, is a true testament to the craftsmanship and design sensibilities of that era. The plate's clear glass composition allows for a close-up view of its intricate floral motif, which is delicately pressed into the surface. The patterned design exudes old-fashioned charm and adds a touch of elegance to any table setting. Displayed in the renowned Art Institute of Chicago, this antique cup plate represents not only a beautiful object but also serves as a window into America's rich artistic heritage. Its presence within the Arts of the Americas collection highlights its significance as an important cultural artifact. With its transparent nature and vibrant colors, this cup plate exemplifies both functionality and aesthetic appeal. It reflects the ingenuity and creativity that went into producing such exquisite pieces at glassworks factories during this time period. As we admire this stunning work of art, it reminds us of our country's history and how objects like these contribute to our collective identity.
