Discount Return To Tiffany galleries deepen

The 18-by-32-foot outdoor room exemplifies Tiffany's unique and dramatic style. Discount Paloma Picasso by eight 11-foot columns that are topped with bouquets of glass daffodils, the terrace's coffered ceiling is composed of hundreds of stenciled wood elements and molded tiles in three bays. The central bay features a skylight covered by six 10-foot grids of iridescent-glass tiles in a pear-tree motif. The 10 new Discount Return To Tiffany galleries deepen the Morse's interpretations of Tiffany's life and legacy. The artist directed every facet of the estate's construction, from the room interiors and architectural details to an extensive scheme of gardens and fountains. The mansion was destroyed by a fire in 1957, 24 years after Tiffany's death. After the fire, Discount Tiffany 1837 and his wife, Jeannette, who together assembled the Morse Museum's collection, salvaged architectural elements, windows and other objects from the ruins of the estate. Over the next four decades, Discount Tiffany Bangles continued to search out and collect objects from the estate that earlier had been auctioned, sold or given away. Photographs of interiors from the estate, which was covered extensively in contemporary magazines and journals, aided the museum's efforts to evoke the true experience of Laurelton Hall through the installations in the new wing. "The new galleries suggest aspects of the actual rooms designed and decorated by Tiffany during his lifetime," said Laurence J. Ruggiero, director of the Morse Museum.
