- "Europa & the Bull, " Art Deco Masterpiece in Engraved Glass by Waugh for SteubenBy Steuben Glass, Sidney WaughLocated in Philadelphia, PAOne 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.
