Most works produced at the Imperial Glassworks were decorated in styles and techniques that were very similar to the one used in Europe, colored glass objects decorated by means of black and white transfer printing in the early 1840s can definitely be established as Russian. In 1839 the artists Konstantin Terebenev and Pavel Semechkin invented a new method of printing on glass which differed significantly from that of English manufacturers.
During the first half of 1840 Terebenev and Semechkin worked at the Imperial Glassworks producing pieces transfer printed with images of Nicholas I and Alexandra Fedorovna based on well-known portrait by Franz Kruger and Christina Robertson.
Shipping, Handling & Insurance are additional. |
