Tiffany in Chicago: Guided Tour
About this experience
Learn about the life and work of Louis Comfort Tiffany as you visit some of Chicago’s most magnificent art-glass and mosaic installations, each designed and crafted by the Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company.
In the late 19th century, the Arts and Crafts movement revived interest in decorative glass. New, well-regarded homes and public buildings from the era were considered incomplete without decorative glass or mosaics. Louis Comfort Tiffany, the preeminent practitioner of this art, gained great exposure for a chapel he designed for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
Today, the city is home to one of the largest collections of Tiffany art glass in the United States. This expertly guided tour introduces some remarkable examples of Tiffany's work.
