EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning goblet from the late 15th to early 16th century, crafted by the Italian School. Made of glass and adorned with delicate enamel and gilding, this exquisite piece stands at an impressive height of 17.5 cm. Housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA, it is a true testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of its time. The goblet itself tells a fascinating story through its intricate decoration. It illustrates an apocryphal tale surrounding the renowned Latin poet Virgil's quest for revenge against a maiden named Febilla who rejected his advances. In this mythical narrative, Virgil uses his magical powers to extinguish all fires in Rome until Febilla is exposed in the marketplace. Only when all women rekindle their fires using tapers lit from an enchanted live coal placed inside her body does he restore fire to the city. With its enchanting imagery depicting Venetian scenes and elements such as decorated murano glass and ornate gilt details, this goblet captures both the magic and beauty of Renaissance Italy. Its ornamental design reflects not only the artistic sensibilities prevalent during that era but also serves as a reminder of how stories were woven into everyday objects. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate not just its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance within European art history.
