Abstract

Cet ouvrage traite de façon claire et précise des diverses techniques de fabrication et de restauration des vitraux. Après un bref aperçu historique et une description des matériaux, outils et techniques employés, le livre aborde les multiples procédés de fabrication, à l'aide d'exercices abondamment illustrés, qui vous présentent, étape par étape, la réalisation de différents types de vitraux, du vitrail au plomb au vitrail au cuivre, en passant par ceux en dalles de verres et ciment armé, jusqu'à ceux assemblés à la colle silicone, technique encore assez peu connue. La dernière partie du livre expose les méthodes de restauration du vitrail au plomb, illustrées de deux exemples concrets.

Abstract

The fourth catalogue devoted to the Wyvern Collection, an exceptional private collection of medieval and Renaissance art, comparable to the holdings of many of the world's great museums.Among the highlights in this volume are two extremely rare Romanesque enamels of c. 1160-70 from the Meuse Valley: the celebrated reliquary triptych probably originally belonging to the Bishop of Liège, and a beautiful phylactery (a reliquary designed to be suspended) with scenes from the story of the True Cross, said to have come from the famous abbey of Lobbes. Limoges enamels of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries are particularly well represented, the 65 pieces making up what is undoubtedly now the finest and most comprehensive collection in private hands. The later painted enamels of Limoges, from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, include remarkable examples of the work of the principal enamellers, most notably Pierre Reymond, and the spectacular horn of St Hubert, dated 1538 and signed by Léonard Limosin, which once belonged to Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill.The catalogue additionally includes other outstanding works of art such as an important Anglo-Carolingian chrismatory of the ninth century, a small group of enigmatic twelfth-century drinking-cups and sumptuous examples of German late medieval goldsmiths' work. Stained and painted glass roundels, Italian Renaissance ceramics, luxurious textiles and tapestries, and German and Italian armour are also catalogued. An appendix presents several important pieces, recently acquired, which supplement those published in the first two volumes.With more than 250 objects, all specially photographed, this is more than a handbook to an especially rich part of one of the greatest private collections. It is a detailed and authoritative guide to medieval and Renaissance enamels and other works of art, a stimulus to further research and a feast for the eyes.
