He made a quantity of glassworks as a result of visiting Venice at this period where he was enthralled by the quality and dexterity of the artisans he met. There artist himself did not merely design this but was present and participated in the making of this piece. Glassworks are an important and documented part of his oeuvre and similar to his other abstract works in nature. Their intricacy of deign and brilliant execution make these desirable and lovely objects.
