Old Venetian Glass is a book that was published in 1960 that documents 75 pieces of Venetian glass from the collection of Vojtech Lanna, which now reside in the Prague Museum of Industrial Art.  The book consists of 72 photographic plates of glass made in the 16th, 17th, and 18th century.  I have reproduced each plate in the book by a taking slow exposure photograph of me "performing" the silhouette of each piece.
