Summary: This richly illustrated book focuses on the beginnings of German and Dutch verre églomisé painting. It presents the results of an interdisciplinary team of art historians, restorers, and scientists. Over a period of several years, they examined verre églomisé paintings from the period between 1300 and 1600 that are held by various museums and collections. The first part of this book is devoted to the placement of verre églomisé painting and its materials in art and cultural history. It contains contributions on the current state of research in the following areas: German, Dutch, and Swiss verre églomisé art; panel painting, stained glass art, and the graphics it was modeled after; technological aspects of glass production, verre églomisé techniques, cold-painted glass, colors, and binders. The following catalog section provides an in-depth, richly illustrated scholarly presentation of forty selected objects. A comprehensive glossary on verre églomisé painting gives non-professionals access to this intriguing field of art.
