Bottle 1750

This 18th-century glass bottle, created by an anonymous artist, is a fascinating example of decorative arts from the period. The bottle is decorated with hand-painted enamels depicting a woman holding flowers, surrounded by intricate floral designs. This type of painted glasswork, known as "enamel painting", was popular throughout Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. The vibrant colors and delicate details of the decoration showcase the skill of the anonymous artist. The bottle, now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the past.
