For over half a century, Louis C. Tiffany oversaw the production and marketing of a multitude of decorative elements for many of America's leading congregations-- Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. This beautifully illustrated volume includes preliminary designs, cartoons, watercolor sketches, and archival photographs of these windows, interiors, and pieces of ecclesiastic furniture, many never published before.
