[Rarebooks] FS: Venetian Glass at Rosenborg Castle

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

TITLE: "Venetianske Glas Pa Rosenborg - Venetian Glass at Rosenborg Castle"

By Gudmund Boesen.
Published in Copenhagen in 1960. Edition limited to 1000 copies.

DISCUSSION: A fully illustrated catalog of the unique collection of
Venetian glass brought back to Rosenborg Castle in 1709 by King Frederik
IV. Venetian glass is not common in Danish collections of this period-
most imported glass was of Germanic origin. Much of this glass represented
gifts from the Venetian Senate, and is of the highest quality and
inventiveness. Fabulous tableware is augmented by such unusual items as
candelabra, glass fruits, and a glass knife, spoon and fork. The
tri-lingual text includes a full English translation. A real treat for
Venetian glass lovers.

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8"x12", about 250 pages; color frontispiece,
several black & white illustrations in the text, and 143 items illustrated
in black & white.

CONDITION NOTES: In fine, clean condition in a fine dust jacket.

PRICE: $300.00
