This intricate glass standing cup, crafted by German artist Christian Gottfried Schneider between 1740 and 1750, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the Rococo period. The cup, part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, features intricate engravings depicting scenes of daily life and mythical figures, reflecting the era's fascination with ornate detail and storytelling. The delicate, faceted form of the cup and its elegant, elongated stem embody the Rococo style's emphasis on asymmetry and graceful curves.
