In this charming fantasy set in Venice, during the Renaissance of 1782, the Archbishop wants a nephew, but a perfect one so an artisan fashions one for him of Venetian glass. Problems arise when the glass nephew falls in love with a fleshandblood woman. The "Venetian Glass Nephew" is subtle, and a sensitively written allegory about the chasm between art and life.
