花びらや葉の裏を表す、すみれ色が美しく、さらには、地のピンクの空とすみれ色の地面のバランスも絶妙で、見る人を飽きさせない。
濃い緑、すみれ色、そしてピンクと、全く傾向の異なる三色を使いながら、それを巧みに使い分け、地より顔を出す花々を華麗に形作り見事に表現している。
ガレの特許を取ったテクニックとしては、腐食を促す酸化物をガラスの素地に混入したり表面に塗ったりして、金属が錆びたような“くもり効果”を出す「パチネ」、色ガラスであらかじめ薄く造形をしたものを、素地に圧をかけながら溶着させてなじませる「マルケトリ」などの技法がある。
The violet color representing the back of the petals and leaves is beautiful. Furthermore, there is an exquisite balance between the pink sky of the ground and the violet color earth. Those looking at this piece will never tire of it.
The artist uses three colors with completely different tendencies – dark green, violet and pink. He skillfully uses them for different purposes. This allows him to beautifully form the flowers that show their faces from the ground to express them splendidly.
Galle patented some of his techniques. These include the patine technique which produces a cloudy effect like rusted metal by mixing oxides that promote corrosion into the glass material or by painting them on the surface. Another is the marquetry technique in which colored glass that has been thinned in advance is welded while pressure is applied to the glass material.
