Over 50 objects are showcased in Tiffany: Luminous Masterworks. The centerpiece of the exhibit features 25 exquisite works by glass artist Louis Comfort Tiffany, including stained glass windows, lamps, vases, and pottery—all from the Wester Collection. Also shown are Tiffany and Company artifacts from the museum’s collections, including dresser sets, the Oliver Loving Cup, and other items from the Copshaholm Collection, as well as the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and Ruthmere. Tiffany’s beautiful work and superior quality workmanship added to the significance of the Art Nouveau movement.
