Summary edit

Description
English: The diamond-stipple method of glass engraving - in which a sharp diamond point was used to tap repeatedly against the glass surface, creating a series of tiny dots that could be used to create the effects of light and shade by varying their density - was innovated in the Netherlands around 1720 by Frans Greenwood, and furthered by a number of followers including David Wolff, who created most of the examples in this display set up in the "35 Centuries of Glass" gallery at the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York. As seen during a March 2022 visit.
