Venetian designer Anzolo Fuga began his career as a graphic designer and stained-glass artist in the 1930s. From 1955 to the late 1960s, Fuga was a consulting designer to the venerable Italian glass house Arte Vetraria Muranese (A.VE.M). This example of his "Windows" design highlights his innovative technique, which combined a number of different glass sections, both clear and brightly colored.
