AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This glass artwork is created by Bertil Vallien and consists of a solid glass vessel-like form in which several figures are depicted, including a small swimming figure. The work is characteristic of Vallien's narrative and symbolic approach to glass, where transparency and depth play an important role.
Bertil Vallien is one of the most renowned and influential Swedish glass artists and is internationally known for his innovative designs and exceptional craftsmanship. With a career spanning more than five decades, he has developed into a true pioneer in the world of art glass. His work is recognizable by the techniques he developed, whereby glass is used in various shapes, colors, and textures to create a strong aesthetic and symbolic layering.
The work is on display at our gallery. Furthermore, Art Dumay operates a picture framing shop (this year celebrating its 85th anniversary) and a restoration studio. So if you would like to make use of these services, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
