"Dove in Flight, " Art Deco Masterpiece in Cerulean and Lemon Enamel by Winter

About the Item

Created by one of the great masters of enamel artistry in America, this wide, shallow dish/bowl bathed in brilliant yellow and cerulean blue enamels over copper depicts a dove in flight, flanked by branches with leaves and berries. The artist was Edward Winter, and this piece demonstrates his application of the Fine Arts, including printmaking and painting, to enamel work, newly embraced by American artists in the 1930s and 1940s. Winter attended the Cleveland Institute of Art and studied in Vienna before teaching at the Cleveland School of Art.

  • "Europa & the Bull, " Art Deco Masterpiece in Engraved Glass by Waugh for Steuben
    By Sidney Waugh, Steuben Glass
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    One of world's greatest achievements in Art Deco artisanry, the famed "Europa and the Bull" spherical bowl was designed by Sidney Waugh and executed by the Steuben Glass division of corning glass in the 1930s. Waugh had been hired by Steuben as its chief designer in 1933, and over the next 20 years he designed a wide array of bowls, vases and other glass objects that were decorated with high-style Art Deco figures executed via copper-wheel engraving. Arthur Amory Houghton, grandson of the founder of Corning, took the Steuben division in a new and modern direction when he hired John Monteith Gates to be its managing director and Waugh to be its first designer. Steuben became known as one of the globe's great modern glass companies, and from the 1930s-1950s, Steuben rivaled Orrefors in Sweden and Lobmeyr in Austria for the finest engraved Art Deco glass work...
