Front door to the Henry O. Havemeyer House, New York (one of a pair)
Artist
Louis Comfort Tiffany
Physical Description
One of a pair of doors that formed an arched entryway. In the upper two thirds of the door are opalescent square glass "coffers" in an arched composition that corresponds to the silhouette of the doors. The interior-facing side of the doors include curvilinear lead caming, inset with medium-sized beach stones, that frame the glass "coffers". The exterior-facing side of the doors has the "coffers" framed by patinated copper sheeting.
A black and white lithograph print of a house angled to the right. The right side has windows with open shutters that cast shadows. The face of the house is slightly shaded by a small porch, and two shuttered doors are open.
