Louis Comfort Tiffany And Laurelton Hall: An Artist's Country Estate

There was nothing I didn't like about this book. Bought it as a gift but wanted to keep it for myself as soon as I saw it. So many beautiful illustrations of Tiffany's work and the art objects he owned. Gorgeous. And praise for the seller--the book looked not in very good condition, but excellent condition! Would give seller six stars if I could.

I own and have read several books on Tiffany, but never one as interesting as this. This book takes you through a brief history on Tiffany, but more importantly it focuses on the homes and the most treasured work of L.C. Tiffany--items he created and his goal of bringing beauty into everyone's lives. All the essays in the book are well written and reveal how Tiffany's design and placement changed over time and climaxed with the building of his Laurelton Hall. Great historic photographs, as well as modern photography, show the remnants of the estate and the beautiful details of each piece. You will look through this book over and over. You can't go wrong with this one.

The book arrived in good condition book had good good information but it could have used a few more pictures

Very very good

I bought it for the pics

There weren't as many photos of the interior of the house as I'd hoped there would be and the quality of the photos wasn't great. Also, the photos weren't captioned as detailed as I'd have liked. However, this may be due to the fact that no one understood the historical value of fully documenting tghis estate until it was almost gone. One wonders if this family didn't pass along photo albums or if descendants have photos but aren't willing to share them because documentation of the downtown Tiffany mansion seems sparse as well. I do like the book because it's more thorough coverage of the Long Island estate than any others I've found. I was just hoping it would be more.

Stunning book. Delivered brand new, in shrinkwrap. Perfect condition.

Thanks.
