To support the Dutch- and German-language catalogues and 2009 exhibition A New Light on Tiffany:
Clara Driscoll and the Tiffany Girls at the Singer Laren Museum (Laren, The Netherlands) and the
Museum Villa Stück (Munich, Germany). The exhibition challenges the conventional notion that
Louis Comfort Tiffany was the sole creative genius of his studio by exploring the previously unknown
career of designer Clara Driscoll, who headed the Tiffany firm’s Women’s Glasscutting Department
and is now known to have created some of its iconic designs.
