Download or read book Louis Comfort Tiffany and Laurelton Hall written by Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2006 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laurelton Hall, Louis Comfort Tiffany's (American, 1848-1933) extraordinary country estate in Oyster Bay, New York, completed in 1905, was the epitome of Tiffany's achievement and in many ways defined this multifaceted artist. Tiffany designed every aspect of the project inside and out, creating a total aesthetic environment. This publication accompanies an exhibition that reveals Tiffany's most personal art, bringing into focus this remarkable artist who lavished as much care and creativity on the design and furnishing of his home and gardens as he did on all the wide-ranging media in which he worked. Although the house tragically burned to the ground in 1957, many of its surviving architectural elements and interior characteristics are included in this volume. Also featured are Tiffany's personal collections of his own work-breathtaking stained-glass windows, paintings, glass and ceramic vases-as well as the artist's collections of Japanese, Chinese, and Native American works of art. -- Metropolitan Museum of Art website.

Book The Art Work of Louis C  Tiffany  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Art Work of Louis C Tiffany Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-24 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art Work of Louis C. Tiffany This volume is not written for the public, but for the children of Louis Comfort Tiffany and at their request. Much concerning their own father which may be known to his fellow artists or to workers in various fields of art, or to persons in different employments and separate ranks of life, is unknown to them. No reason for surprise in this: it is the commonest thing in the world to find that the last persons to be informed of what a professional man has achieved in his life work are his children. For the former, more than any other man, uses his home as a rest and refuge from the ideas that beset him at his daily task. With his nearest and dearest he rarely if ever talks shop. What more natural, then, for them to discover with something of a shock that if anything should happen to their father they would be left without a record of the various lines of endeavor he pursued? It is this condition confronting them which caused their father to listen to their reproaches and overcome his natural dislike for anything that savors of self-seeking and agree to the printing of a book which is to some extent a biography but primarily a record.

Book excerpt: Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933) is celebrated today as one of the most influential creative designers of the late 19th- and early 20th-centuries. A New Light on Tiffany: Clara Driscoll and the Tiffany Girls presents the celebrated works of Tiffany Studios in an entirely new context, focusing on the "Tiffany Girls", the 27 women who laboured behind the scenes to create the masterpieces now inextricably linked to the Tiffany name. Recently discovered correspondence written by Ohio-born Clara Driscoll, head of the so-called "Women's Glass Cutting Department" at Tiffany Studios, reveals in convincing and vivid detail how it was in fact Driscoll who generated designs for such masterpieces as the famous Wisteria, Dragonfly and Peony goods. At the heart of the book are over 50 Tiffany lamps, windows, ceramics, enamels and mosaics, supplemented by a wide array of related documents and archival photographs.
