Synopsis
This lovely volume features an informative text complemented by beautiful
illustrations of Tiffany's stunning accomplishments, including the famous
lamps, stained-glass windows, mosaics, jewelry, paintings, enamels, bronzes,
and much more.
Most people associate Louis Comfort Tiffany with masterworks of glass and, in
particular with brilliantly colored windows and lamps. Yet, Tiffany
actually excelled in a far greater range of mediums than is generally
recognized. Here, in 72 full-color plates, are eye-opening examples of
Tiffany’s superb enamels, jewerly, bronzes, ceramics, mosaics, paintings, and
even works in wood—as well as his glass designs, some famous and some lesser
known.
Each chapter sheds new light on the prodigiously far-reaching talents of this
revered American artist, as three distinguished authors approach aspects
of Tiffany’s work from fresh vantage points. Neil Harris discusses Tiffany's
career as an ambitious young interior decorator and his later ability to
shape mass taste with his wide range of domestic and ecclesiastical objects.
Martin Eidelberg provides a perceptive study of the cult of Nature in
Tiffany’s works and differentiates the artist’s forms from those of European
Art Nouveau. And Alastair Duncan analyzes the fascinating dichotomy
between Tiffany’s religious and secular windows comparing the traditional
style of the former with the creative brilliance of the latter, which
determined Tiffany’s status as an international glass artist.
A contemporary German critic once spoke of Tiffany’s “dumbfounding
versatility”; in its scope and originality this volume confirms that
characterization.
