The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, US, will present an exhibition called Louis Comfort Tiffany and Laurelton Hall – An Artist's Country Estate from 21 November to 20 May 2007.
Louis Comfort Tiffany lived at Laurelton Hall, which he completely designed, in Florida from 1902–05. The property was destroyed by fire in 1957 but salvaged architectural elements and windows will form part of the museum’s exhibition.
The first gallery will introduce the domestic interiors of the American designer’s former home, with subsequent galleries leading the visitor through recreated rooms featuring Tiffany-designed furniture, objects and works on paper and canvas.
Museum curator Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen said: “Laurelton Hall serves as a metaphor for Tiffany’s art in other media – his lamps, jewellery, vases, pottery, enamels and windows. It represents Tiffany’s quest for a utopian artistic space and his ultimate pursuit of beauty in the natural world.”
The exhibit is supported by The Tiffany & Co. Foundation and The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art in Florida. Details: www.metmuseum.org
