A related but earlier heavy baluster goblet of similar ceremonial size engraved with a comparable scene of Bacchus bestriding a barrel is in Manchester Art Gallery (inv. no.1920.803), illustrated and discussed by W A Thorpe, 'English Glass at the Manchester City Art Gallery', The Collector, Vol.11 (1930), pp.90-1, fig.2 where the decoration is attributed to a German engraver perhaps working in Berlin. Thorpe also discusses the similarities of the engraving on the present lot to Potsdam engraved glass, particularly the unusual formal borders. A Potsdam goblet engraved with a comparable scene of Bacchus is illustrated by Rainer Rückert, Die Glasammlung des Bayerischen Nationalmuseums München, Vol.2 (1982), p.252, pl.XXVII, no.813.The decoration on several other surviving glasses suggests that this style of engraving, influenced by earlier German work, is likely to have made its way to the Netherlands before reaching England. Two Dutch engraved light baluster goblets with similar scenes of Bacchus from the A C Hubbard Jr Collection were sold by Bonhams on 30 November 2011, lots 267 and 268 and are illustrated by Ward Lloyd, A Wine Lover's Glasses (2000), pp.97-8, pl.144. Whilst clearly by different hands, the way in which polishing has been used to accentuate certain aspects of the engraving is paralleled on the present goblet, suggesting that a Dutch engraver may have been responsible.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
