| dc.description | Overall view, backlit to show the stained glass in the Gothic Revival wood frame; Louis Comfort Tiffany began his career as a painter, working under the influence of such artists as George Inness (1825-1894) and Samuel Colman (1832-1920). Beginning in the late 1870s, Tiffany turned his attention to decorative arts and interiors, although he never abandoned painting. By late 1892 or early 1893, Tiffany built a glasshouse in Corona, Queens, New York, and, with Arthur Nash, a skilled glassworker from Stourbridge, England, his furnaces developed a method whereby different colors were blended together in the molten state, achieving subtle effects of shading and texture. Recalling the Old English word fabrile (hand-wrought), Tiffany named the blown glass from his furnaces Favrile. Of all of Tiffany's artistic endeavors, leaded-glass brought him the greatest recognition. Tiffany and his early rival, John La Farge, revolutionized the look of stained glass. Tiffany's use of opalescent and Favrile glass gave him the ability to "paint" with glass. His designers and workshop worked in the same technique. This window was in the house of Robert W. de Forest, New York, until 1925. Source: Metropolitan Museum of Art [website]; http://www.metmuseum.org (accessed 4/29/2014) | en_US |
