SinopseAlastair Duncan, the world-renowned authority on Louis C. Tiffany, has produced the definitive work on America´s premier artist-designer, examining every facet of Tiffany´s unrivalled achievements in a lifetime consecrated, in his own words, to ´The Quest of Beauty´. As Tiffany´s wares have continued to rise in popularity since their resurgence in the 1950s, many collectors have focused on different aspects of Tiffany´s work. Only Takeo Horiuchi, however, has built a comprehensive collection of masterworks in every artistic discipline to which Tiffany applied himself. This book, based on the superlative Louis C. Tiffany Garden Museum Collection formed by Mr. Horiuchi, presents a unique overview of every aspect of Tiffany´s talent. For the first time it is possible to see the full range of Louis C. Tiffany´s creativity from his famous lamps and windows to his lesser-known paintings and furniture. Every piece in the collection is reproduced in colour, often complemented by extracts from contemporary art revues and the Tiffany firm´s sales catalogues, advertisements and price lists, with photographs of their original domestic settings, in the firm´s showrooms or international expositions at which they made their debuts. Tiffany´s workshops are also illustrated, as well as the logbook entries of its artisans and annotated sketches of its designers. This wealth of illustrative material is accompanied by the author´s detailed and evocative descriptions of the workshops, materials, manufacturing processes, the rich and famous who patronised Tiffany, their commissions, and the colourful personalities of the team of artist-craftsmen with whom Tiffany surrounded himself. This book is a true testament to his extraordinary talent.
