Une icône dans le mouvement Art Nouveau, Émile Gallé (1846-1904) a cherché à montrer la beauté et la simplicité de la nature dans ses oeuvres en verre. Ses créations, appelées « Poésie de verre », vont de la poterie, aux bijoux et au mobilier. Tout ce que Gallé a produit contient une trace de sa grande technicité qui reflète son innovation artistique et ses compétences créatives. Cet ouvrage révèle la beauté et l’ingéniosité dont Émile Gallé a su faire preuve dans son oeuvre.
