EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of craftsmanship from the 19th century - the Book-Shaped Vinaigrette, created by Taylor and Perry in Birmingham, England in 1835/36. The vinaigrette, an object commonly used to hold perfume or aromatic substances, is crafted with exquisite attention to detail. The gilded silver exterior of this vinaigrette gleams with a golden hue, showcasing the mastery of Taylor and Perry's metalwork. The intricate gilding adds an air of elegance and sophistication to this unique creation. Its book-like shape adds a touch of whimsy and charm. As one gazes upon this work of art, it becomes evident that it represents not only the skillful hands that fashioned it but also the rich heritage of British decorative arts. This vinaigrette stands as a testament to the ingenuity and creativity prevalent during this period in Europe. Now housed at the Art Institute Chicago, this precious artifact invites viewers into a world where beauty meets functionality. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects can be transformed into works of art through meticulous craftsmanship. Capturing both history and beauty within its frame, this print allows us to appreciate not only the physicality but also the concept behind such an extraordinary creation. As we admire Taylor and Perry's Book-Shaped Vinaigrette, we are transported back in time to witness their artistic vision come alive in silver gilt form.
