Louis Comfort Tiffany

Additional cultural and artistic information about the artist

* * *

Main works

"Dome of the Chicago Cultural Center" in 1893, several rooms in the White House in 1882, Mark Twain's house, his own residence Laurelton Hall, in Oyster Bay, New York state.

Artistic movements

Art Deco, Art Nouveau.

Inspiration, influence

The "Arts and Crafts" movement founded by William Morris (which influenced many decorators and designers), as well as Orientalism (especially in his architectural work) are two of the main influences of Tiffany.

His contemporaries

John La Farge, the other great glassmaker who modernized, like Tiffany, the methods of European goldsmiths and glassmakers. Samuel Colman, one of his associates, as well as Mark Twain and Chester Arthur, the 21st President of the United States, who refused to move into the White House until it had been redecorated...

To keep in mind

Designer, creator, artist with a global vision, but also an entrepreneur, Tiffany discovered glasswork at the age of 24 and was able to radically transform it in almost 60 years of passion... Louis Tiffany developed opalescent glass as well as the "Favrile" technique, which involves replacing lead with copper in stained glass, providing more possibilities in terms of shapes.

To go further

His broad culture (ranging from Byzantine gilding to Oriental paintings by Delacroix), his interest in different cultures, his great curiosity that led him from painting to architecture, and his fortunate timing of being able to create at the moment of the installation of electricity in American households (which led to the success of his lamps that made his reputation internationally) placed him in a unique position where he was able to influence the arts and design schools, as very few artists knew how to do (Louis C. Tiffany, Mucha, Morris).
