“The Delicacies and Intricacies of the Venetian Glass Arts: A Slideshow” is a pictorial representation of the struggle between tradition and innovation in the glass arts of Murano, in the Venetian lagoon. It includes a revue of the Venetian glass arts, from beadwork to glassblowing, including the story of Giorgio Giuman and Berengo Studios.
