Louis Comfort Tiffany: Treasures from the Driehaus Collection
- Used Book in Good Condition
A seminal artist of the Gilded Age, Louis Comfort Tiffany is the best known and most widely collectedÂ figure in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century American decorative arts. The splendid objects from the Driehaus Collection, installed as the inaugural exhibition of the Richard H. Driehaus Museum, showcase a wide variety of Tiffanyâ€™s work in an architectural setting of the period.
Â
Newly commissioned photographs by John Faier highlight the subtle detail and rich coloring of each object, revealing why Tiffany is so revered as a designer. Essays by Richard H. Driehaus and David A. Hanks explore the collectorâ€™s vision and Tiffany Studiosâ€™s largely unknown legacy in Chicago.
Â
Vividly colored, enriched with ornament, and boldly scaled, the book provides an intimate look into the artistry and craftsmanship of Tiffany, and is a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike to experience the objects as never before seen.
