Several years ago, I read a wonderful book about the women behind the Tiffany glass operation called Clara and Mr. Tiffany: A Novel. It’s about about Clara Driscoll, who was the chief designer of the Tiffany lamps and some of his stained glass. A really good read and fascinating that a woman during that time period who had a career. Amazon sells it or check with your local library.

Perspective

I wanted you to see the scale of the cover page of the Design section with Gordon Hancock’s article. That photo alone is 15 inches tall. Sometimes print does outperform digital. A phone, tablet or computer screen just doesn’t capture it.
