Goblet 1685

This 17th-century, anonymously-made goblet is an example of engraved glass, which was a popular decorative technique during the period. The delicate etching on the clear glass depicts a figure in a landscape, likely a scene from a popular story or myth. This goblet, now a part of the Rijksmuseum collection, highlights the skilled craftsmanship and intricate detail that characterized glassmaking in the 17th century.
