The Russian painter Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) is famous for his brilliant costume and set
designs. His dramatic use of light brought the "Father of Art Déco" worldwide fame.
All of his works are pervaded by his deeply spiritual philosophy. In 1990, Erté died at the ripe old age of 98.

His second piece in conjunction with Baccarat, one of the oldest and most famous crystal
