Specifically, he fell in love with an almost forgotten and startling art form what Gilbert called micromosaics thousands and thousands of tiny pieces of glass that form a picture, almost indistinguishable from a painting. The technique, developed in Rome in the 18th century and applied to objects ranging from exquisite tabletops to snuffboxes, became the core of one of the most extraordinary collections of decorative arts in any museum: the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Collection, on permanent loan at the Victoria and Albert Museum since 2008.
