One of the most basic approaches to any artist is biographical, a study that involves looking at a lifetime’s work from the perspective of the facts of that life. Alongside some of the main known facts of Tiffany’s life, this exhibition presents some of the personal objects Tiffany owned, various records and awards, and many of his artistic creations to provide an appreciation that biography can bring to art. Objects will range from an 1865 sketch album from 17-year-old Tiffany’s first visit to Europe to silver-and-ivory cuff links used by the artist to a few works from the most extensive personal project of his career, the country estate he built on Long Island between 1902 and 1905.
