Zitzmann's literal interpretation of a tulip in glass is part of an international period of glass experimentation that was part of the Art Nouveau movement, and that resulted in the widespread interpretation of floral and foliate forms. This purely decorative goblet is very much in the spirit of Louis Comfort Tiffany's floriform vases, an example of which is on view in Gallery 323.
