Catalog of an exhibition of the collection of Salviati glass given to the Stanford family in the 19th century and donated to Stanford University's art museum (now the Iris & B. Gerald Cantor Center for Visual Arts at Stanford University). The exhibition was held Sept. 18-Dec. 29, 2002, at the Center. "The Salviati Collection of Venetian glass was presented to the Leland Stanford Junior Museum, California, at the end of the nineteenth century by Maurizio Camerino and Silvio Salviati. The gift, which encompasses virtually all the colours, styles and techniques marketed under the celebrated name, has been for the most part under wraps since the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and will now be displayed for the first time. This collection forms the basis of this fully illustrated book which accompanies its exhibition at the Iris & B. Gerald Cantor Center for Visual Arts at Stanford University, California. Seen again in the light of the twenty-first century, these glass vessels demonstrate the extraordinary inventiveness and technical mastery involved in creating hand-blown Salviati glass." "Two hundred and forty-five pieces are illustrated and described in this the most comprehensive publication on Salviati glass yet published. The resulting book will be invaluable to collectors, dealers and auction houses in this fashionable collecting area.".
