Louis Comfort Tiffany: Artist for the Ages

by Marilyn A. Johnson

The perfect companion for the Carnegie Museum of Art's upcoming exhibition of the same title, this catalogue provides a rare opportunity to look beyond the famous Tiffany lamp and discover the foremost American designer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries who was a hardworking perfectionist, relentless in his quest for beauty. The art and life of Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933) were filled with drama, color, and complexity. His aesthetic and technical experiments made him, arguably, the greatest glassmaker the world has ever seen. In addition to the brilliance of his leaded-glass lamp shades, he produced mosaics, metalwork, enamels, art pottery, jewelry, textiles, and furniture.
