| L'Attesa (translation She Who Waits) Description: | Pensive and patient, this figure has been captured by Dino Rosin, master Italian glass sculptor, in a position of everlasting wait. The softly curving palm cups the figure’s chin ever so slightly, while its chin is tilted forward almost imperceptibly as it sits quietly in deep thought. This contemplative glass sculpture leaves the viewer curious; what could she be waiting for? The rich Calcedonia colors drape effortlessly about the "L'Attesa", only serving to enhance her dreamlike quality. As with all of Dino Rosin’s Calcedonia glass works, no two sculptures will ever contain the same colors. The distinguishing colors of Calcedonia, comparable to the stripes in a zoned agate, are created through the introduction of silver nitrate to crystal clear glass. Patterns found in each Dino Rosin sculpture cannot be controlled since the colors depend solely upon the chemical reaction of each batch. As a result, every sculpture - including "L'Attesa" - has the added element of chance upon that of unparalleled mastery.
Dino Rosin is a true "Maestro" from the celebrated glass art island of Murano, Italy. Rosin continues his family's tradition of glass blowing that dates back generations. "L'Attesa" is a stunning example of this world famous artist's skill and lineage, with a combination of clear and "Calcedonia" glass, a lost art rediscovered by Loredano Rosin, Dino's predecessor and older brother. Rosin's studio produces the clearest and most colorful Calcedonia glass in the world. Impossible to duplicate, each piece is completely unique in its color. |
