Louis Comfort Tiffany And Art Devotion Patricia C. Pongracz

Louis C.Tiffany and the Art of Devotion focuses on the vast assortment of church decorations and memorials produced by Louis C.Tiffany (1848-1933) and the Tiffany Studios. For over half a century, Tiffany oversaw the production and marketing of a multitude of decorative elements for many of America"s leading congregations - Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. Although an important part of the ecclesiastical business consisted of the vibrantly colored leaded-glass windows most famously associated with his name, Tiffany was interested in the bigger picture and employed designers, draftsmen, and craftspeople to produce a complete interior design including mosaics, windows, floors, lighting, furniture, altarpieces, pulpits, candlesticks, headstones and mausolea, vestments, and jewellery. Works in all media including marble, glass, wood, metal, and fabric could be bought "off the shelf" or as special commissions designed for a particular patron. This beautifully illustrated volume includes preliminary designs, cartoons, watercolor sketches, and archival photographs of these windows, interiors, and pieces of ecclesiastic furniture, many never published before.
