Beaker

Decorator Anton Kothgasser Austrian

Not on view

The German inscription on this painted beaker reads “Inseparable / Only by you and with you,” a dedication to romantic love and undying loyalty. The landscape echoes this sentiment: under a full moon, two trees shelter a pair of nuzzling turtledoves.
