March 4 - June 28, 2009

In Company with Angels:  
Seven Rediscovered Tiffany Windows

The Alchemy of Beauty:
Objects of Art from Tiffany Studios and the Newcomb Pottery




These companion exhibitions present a series of rare, recently discovered stained-glass windows as well as lamps, metalwork, and fire screens by American Art Nouveau master Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Created in the early 1900s, the works on view date to the same period that Newcomb College founder and benefactress Josephine Louise Newcomb commissioned eleven Tiffany windows for the chapel at the school’s original Garden District location.  Now on permanent display on Tulane University’s uptown campus, these works help comprise the largest collection of Tiffany stained glass in the South. 

Shows are funded in part by Tulane University and the Newcomb College Institute.

Angels exhibition organized by In Company with Angels, Inc.
