About this Item

Hardcover, bound, 300 pages, 600 images. 29 cm x 22cm x 2 cm Text in English + ISBN 9789081577649. In Art signed Galle Tiny Esveld, in collaboration with Clementine L. Diepen, has cast new light on the renowned French designer Emile Galle (1846-1904). Esveld raises a number of points which many authors prefer to pass over, such as the important role that Galle?s father played in the production of his ceramics and the involvement of Emile's wife Henriette and their daughters after Galle's death in 1904. Almost 90% of glass signed Galle which comes on the market today dates from the period after his early death. Galle?s oeuvre of ceramics, glass and luxury furniture, which was often inspired by nature, is examined and explained by means of concise texts, informative descriptions and hundreds of photographs. Esveld also draws on her expertise to illuminate Galle?s often innovative techniques and production methods. With Art signed Galle, Tiny Esveld has added to the scope of the literature about Emile Galle from her own perspective. In its 300 pages, she transports the reader back to the era and the city in which Galle lived and worked. This is a coffee table book, a popular work of reference and a practical guide in one.
