 The Tiffany exhibition: a genuine feast of colour and light
At the Luxembourg Museum until January 17, 2010. Without a shadow of a doubt, Tiffany was one of the greatest glass artists from the early 20th century. Skilfully combining light and colour, he brought a whole new approach to blown glass vases, stained glass, lamps and other items. The presentation of his stained-glass work in France has required considerable technical prowess (particularly where transportation is concerned) with the result being a very special exhibition.
