Salle Blaschka, Muséum d'histoire naturelle, Geneva, Switzerland
In June 2008, the Natural History Museum in Geneva, Switzerland has opened a new gallery
devoted to the marine biology specimens created by Leopold and Rudolf BLASCHKA between
1863 and 1890. The glass models were much more life-like than preserved specimens of the
actual invertebrate sea creatures and were sold to a number of universities and museums in
Europe and North America so that students could use them. Today, these pieces are viewed as
art, due to the amazing skill which went into their creation. Ninety-four examples of these
very fragile figures are on view as a permanent exhibition.

was transformed after the fall of the Roman Empire, when all but the simplest techniques

increased and how in the later Middle Ages, local products were joined by luxurious glasses
imported from the Islamic world to set the stage for the golden age of Venetian glassmaking
by the 15th century. The exhibition will be on view at the Corning Museum of Glass in
Corning, New York, U.S.A. from 15 May 2010 until 2 January 2011.

Forthcoming publications
Glass from the tomb of Nesikhons in the Royal cachette at Thebes-West (TT320), Egypt
Birgit SCHLICK-NOLTE announces the discovery of ten additional fragmentary glass beakers
from the tomb of Nesikhons in the Royal cachette at Thebes-West (TT320), Egypt. With this
new discovery by the project under the direction of Prof. Dr. Erhart GRAEFE, Münster,
Germany, it can now be concluded that Nesikhons was buried with a total number of c. 30
glass beakers (for the fragments of the 20 already known glass beakers from this burial
compare: B. SCHLICK-NOLTE, R. WERTHMANN, ‘The Glass Beakers of Nesikhons: a
preliminary report’, in: Annales du 15e congrès de l'AIHV (New York - Corning 2001), New
York 2003, 1-3; B. SCHLICK-NOLTE, R. WERTHMANN, ‘Glass Vessels from the Burial of
Nesikhons’, Journal of Glass Studies 45, 2003, 1-24). A first report on the recently discovered
glass beakers will be published soon (B. SCHLICK-NOLTE, R. WERTHMANN, ‘More Glass
Beakers for Nesikhons. A Preliminary Report’, Journal of Glass Studies 52, 2010). The final
report is in preparation (B. SCHLICK-NOLTE, R. WERTHMANN, ‘Fragments of Glass Beakers’,

Molten Color: Glassmaking in Antiquity
Karol WIGHT is working on a companion volume to the exhibition “Molten Color:
Glassmaking in Antiquity” which is held at the Getty Villa in Malibu, California, U.S.A. from
8 October 2009 onwards for the foreseeable future. The volume will be published by the
Getty Museum.
Roman cameo glass in the British Museum
P. ROBERTS, W. GUDENRATH, V. TATTON-BROWN and D. WHITEHOUSE present one of the
largest collection of Roman cameo glass with over seventy pieces from the British Museum in
London including the Portland Vase and the Auldjo Jug. Archaeological, technological,
iconographic and typological evidence is used to understand the origins of cameo glass and to
place it in the context of contemporary Roman art and craftmanship. Furthermore, a relative
and absolute chronology for cameo glass is proposed and possible models for the organisation
of workshop(s) producing it is suggested (P. ROBERTS, W. GUDENRATH, V. TATTON-BROWN,
D. WHITEHOUSE, Roman Cameo Glass in the British Museum, London 2010).

contexts, Byzas 11, Istanbul forthcoming.
Papers presented at an international workshop on Byzantine small finds from archaeological
contexts held in Istanbul in June 2008 and organised by the German Archaeological Institute
in Istanbul, the Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations of the Koç University, Istanbul
and the Archaeological Museum Istanbul will be published in this volume. Besides several
papers dealing with Byzantine glass as parts of the corpus of small finds from numerous
Byzantine sites, two papers are devoted specifically to studies on early Byzantine glass.
Marianne STERN presents the early Byzantine glass from the Athenian Agora and Daniel
KELLER discusses the problem of residual glass finds for establishing a chronology of early
Byzantine glass from Elephantine in Southern Egypt.
Early Byzantine and early Islamic glass from Jabal Hārūn, Jordan
The glass finds of the early Byzantine monastery of St. Aaron on Jabal Hārūn near Petra,
Jordan, are currently studied by Daniel KELLER (Basel) and Jeanette LINDBLOM (Helsinki).
The glass finds belong mainly to the period of the use of the monastery from the mid/late 5th
to the 9th century AD. They offer the opportunity to study early Byzantine and Umayyad/early
Abbasid glass from Southern Jordan. Chemical analyses of more than 200 samples were
36
conducted by Susanne GREIFF (Mainz) indicating several compositional groups. The final
report of the archaeological and archaeometrical study will be submitted later this year for
publication of the Finnish Jabal Hārūn Project under the direction of Dr. Zbigniew T. FIEMA
and Prof. Dr. Jaakko FRÖSÉN (Helsinki) in Z. T. FIEMA, J. FRÖSÉN, Petra – The Mountain of
Aaron II, Helsinki forthcoming.

Josef WELZEL
On 3 December 2009, Josef WELZEL received the German Federal Cross of Merit from the
German Federal President for his merits as teacher, glass artist and glass scholar for the
research and experiments of glass melting, grinding and engraving. Since 1963, Josef WELZEL
was teaching at the Staatliche Glasfachschule in Hadamar, Germany. From the 1970s
onwards, he started to work on the reconstruction of Roman cage cups of which he
reconstructed over the time more or less all including copies of the Lycurgus Cup in London,
the Pharos Beaker from Begram and the situla from the treasure of San Marco in Venice.
Josef WELZEL also worked on the production technique of cameo glass vessels and produced
38
a copy of the Portland Vase in London. In 2008/09 his copy of the Hellenistic glass amphora
from Olbis was presented alongside the original amphora in the Antikensammlung in Berlin
together with the tools he developed to produce his copy.
The following note is an appreciation of his lifework by Getrude PLATZ (Berlin).
Josef WELZEL – Ehrung seines Lebenswerkes
Am 3. Dezember 2009 wurde Josef WELZEL das Bundesverdienstkreuz am Bande verliehen.
Der Bundespräsident würdigte damit das Lebenswerk eines neugierigen Geistes, der über 50
Jahre lang das Schmelzen, Schleifen und Gravieren von Glas erforscht und experimentell
entwickelt hat. Nach einer vielseitigen und profunden Ausbildung unterrichtete Welzel seit
1963 als Fachlehrer für Glasgestaltung an der Staatlichen Glasfachschule in Hadamar. Neben
seinen eigenen Schöpfungen als kreativer Bildhauer, reizten ihn zunehmend die ungelösten
Fragen zur Herstellung antiker Gläser, die Archäologen wie Otto DOPPELFELD, Elisabeth
HAEVERNICK oder Axel VON SALDERN an ihn stellten.
So begann er in den 1970er Jahren mit der Rekonstruktion von Diatret-Gläsern, die er zuerst
eingehend untersuchte und zeichnete, bevor er sie – teilweise nur anhand von Fragmenten
oder alten Fotografien – nach und nach alle rekonstruierte; einige waren in der Ausstellung
„Konstantin der Große“ 2007 in Trier versammelt. Seine an den Netzbechern erlangte
Kunstfertigkeit gipfelte in den Kopien figürlicher Diatreta wie dem Lykurgus-Becher in
London, dem Pharos-Becher aus Begram und der Situla von San Marco in Venedig.
Parallel dazu vertiefte sich WELZEL in die nächste Herausforderung: die Ergründung der
Herstellung zweifarbiger Kameogläser. Schon bei den Vorarbeiten zu den Diatreta hatte er
sich eingehend mit Technik und Geschichte des Kameenschliffs beschäftigt, unterstützt von
dem bekannten Graveur Richard HAHN in Idar-Oberstein. Für sein Meisterstück, die
Nachbildung der berühmten Portland-Vase im British Museum London, prüfte er auch deren
Kopien in Keramik und Glas vom späten 18. Jahrhundert bis heute. Nach vielen
Überlegungen ergänzte er die Portland-Vase als Spitzamphora mit Deckel, aufgrund der
kürzlich im Londoner Kunsthandel Bonhams aufgetauchten „Dionysiac Cameo Glass Vase“
nicht die einzige Option. Aber WELZEL schloss seine Publikation „Die Amphore des Kaisers“
von 1992: „Ich hoffe, dass ich mit meiner Nachbildung … Anregung zur weiteren Diskussion
gegeben habe.“
Diese Offenheit und Freude an der Diskussion zeichnet WELZEL aus als geschätzten Partner
für Archäologen und Historiker. Fragen und Bedenken waren ihm immer ein Ansporn, auch
etwa für die Entwicklung eigener Werkzeuge nach antikem Vorbild. Stets hat er die einzelnen
39
Schritte seines Vorgehens genau dokumentiert und publiziert. Seine hartnäckige Neugierde
und gewissenhafte Experimentierlust leiteten ihn auch bei der Nachbildung der berühmten
Glasamphora aus Olbia, die nach 8-jähriger Arbeit 2008/09 in der Antikensammlung Berlin –
samt dem eigens entwickelten Werkzeug, den diversen Formen, aber auch den Fehlversuchen
– neben dem Original ausgestellt werden konnte (Siehe: GLASHAUS – GLASS HOUSE
4/2008).
Josef WELZEL hat mit bewundernswertem Erfindungsreichtum und geduldigem Streben nach
Perfektion überprüfbare Erkenntnisse für die experimentelle Archäologie geleistet. Zu Recht
sind seine Repliken antiker Luxusgläser weltweit von Museen und Sammlern begehrt, immer
wieder werden sie als Referenz zu den antiken Techniken bei Sonderausstellungen präsentiert
(Zuletzt: D. WHITEHOUSE et al., Reflecting Antiquitiy. Modern Glass Inspired by Ancient
Rome. Ausstellung im J. Paul Getty Museum Malibu/CA und im Corning Museum of
Glass/NY 2007/08). Seine Auszeichnung mit dem Bundesverdienstkreuz am Bande ehrt seine
„herausragenden Leistungen“ als Lehrer, als Glaskünstler und als Glasforscher.
