Liechtenstein Museum Shows Glass and Porcelain from Two Private Collections
Bohemia Beaker, c. 1840. Height 13.2 cm. Kuhn Collection. © LIECHTENSTEIN MUSEUM. Die Fürstlichen Sammlungen, Wien.
VIENNA.- Radiance and colour are the two elements that connect glass and porcelain, their motivation and motifs reflecting the spirit of the epochs – Baroque, Neoclassical and Biedermeier – in which they were created. A comprehensive assemblage of around 700 objects from the private collections of Christian Kuhn and Rudolf von Strasser provides rare insights into a fascinating aspect of these decorative arts. With its mainly Bohemian Biedermeier glasses, the Kuhn Collection displays the rich variety and colourfulness of the art of glass, presenting veduta glasses together with cut and engraved glasses by renowned artists such as Kothgasser, Biemann or Egermann
