chicagosilver Posts: 227 Registered: Aug 2005	posted 02-28-2013 01:46 PM Friedell was truly great and is one of our favorites. His repousse work was stellar, from his ornate monos to beautiful floral ornamentation. But here's an unusual Friedell piece -- a child's cup with an insect chasing some sort of terrified sprite. The stuff of childhood nightmares. IP: Logged
