"Dish," a 1685 silver dish by German silversmith Sigismund Zschammer, showcases the intricate craftsmanship of the Baroque period. The dish's surface is elaborately embossed with a decorative border of scrolling foliage, fruit, and putti, reflecting the period's penchant for exuberant ornamentation. This highly detailed work, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a testament to Zschammer's artistry and the beauty of 17th-century German silverwork.
