Lidded Canister with Handle, Elaborate Repoussé & Enamel Work, Munich Secession
About the Item
Crafted by Ludwig Vierthaler for the Josef Winhart metalwork company in Munich, this gorgeous and singular lidded canister displays the bravura repoussé work that the artist is known for. Winhart hammered elaborate Secession-style swirls and geometric patterns into the sides and lid of this piece, and enriched the lid with midnight blue and ruddy brown enamels. The entire piece has a subtle hammered finish and a streaky patina that gives the surface great depth of color. Interestingly, Vierthaler spent years as a metalsmith at Tiffany and Company in New York before returning to Germany to work with Winhart and other firms. His work is highly reminiscent of the famed Vienna Secession, and indeed the Munich Secession's artists had goals that were parallel to their famed counterparts 250 miles away.
