glass models of exotic plants and bizarre sea creatures

Leopold + Rudolf Blaschka / The Glass Aquarium

During the late 19th century, the Dresden studio of LEOPOLD BLASCHKA (1822-1895)and his son RUDOLF (1857-1929) produced beautifully detailed glass models of exotic plants and bizarre sea creatures for natural history museums and aquaria all over the world.

１９世紀の後期、ドレスデン・スタジオの LEOPOLD BLASCHKA と彼の息子の RUDOLF は世界中の博物館と水族館の為にエキゾティックな植物と奇妙な海中生物を美しいガラス細工で作った。
