Description
The 1900 Paris World's Fair was a key moment in the career of René Lalique, who, at the age of forty, achieved consecration. His jewelry, silverware, sculptures and objets d'art were a resounding success, perfectly embodying the spirit of the age. Building on this recognition, Lalique turned to glass, adding a new dimension to his work.
The first edition of this catalog revolutionized the art world, listing and photographing over 4000 pieces, when even connoisseurs knew little more than 1000.
The 2004 edition is even richer, with 200 additional photos and detailed information on the dates and dimensions of the pieces. Unavailable for over two years, this new edition is finally back, a must-have for art lovers and professionals alike.
