Cameo Vase Series
Emile Gallé
In Gallé's creations, the Bible is not just a doctrine in words, but richly extends into boundless poetry: the rose is love, the olive tree is peace, the narcissus and dandelion are spring and forgiveness, the bee is kindness, and the fig is gentleness. All life, whether it grows from the earth or flies in the sky, is a grace, a joy, and an object of praise. And all the techniques of glass are but a musical instrument, under Gallé's direction, each piece harmoniously displays a symphony-like overall beauty. This combination of depth and exquisite craftsmanship allows Gallé's works to transcend the mere symbolic level, revealing a brilliance in human glass art that has never been seen before.
