First half of the century

DURING the last few years a handful of talented artists in various parts of the world have
revived the art of glass engraving. They have thrown in sharp focus the fact that engraving is
the most expressive and appropriate of all applied forms of glass decoration. Engraving on
glass has been practised since early Christian times. Pliny described it in the first century
A.D. in his book on natural history. Italian craftsmen employed the process for the carving of
rock crystal during the Renaissance, and during the 16th century Caspar Lehmann at Prague
revived its application to glass. Dutch and German craftsmen became highly proficient in the
art of glass engraving during the 17th century, and shortly afterwards it was adopted in this
country.
