The rock crystal has fascinated people throughout history and inspired their imaginations. Aside from gold, there is hardly any material that has received such attention over the millennia. Anton Legner, the legendary director of the Schnütgen Museum in Cologne, dedicated his life to the multifaceted stone. In a personal retrospective, he presents outstanding art objects made from rock crystal: intricate crosses and vessels for sacred relics impressively reflect medieval piety, while masterpieces from the Renaissance once adorned princely residences. In his exploration of art and cultural history, Anton Legner also traces the marks that rock crystal has left in painting and literature. His picture and reading book gathers statements from poets and scholars across many eras and guides readers through the treasure chambers of Cologne's churches and museums. It recalls great exhibitions of medieval art and bridges the gap between Bohemia and the Rhineland—two regions where rock crystal played a significant role and which also shaped Anton Legner's life.
