Stained glass window ca. 1877-80 Daniel Cottier This window is securely attributed to Daniel Cottier, a glass stainer and ultimately decorator and dealer who began his career in Glasgow, moved to London where he perfected his mature aesthetic style, and then in 1873 opened a workshop in New York under the name "Cottier & Co., Upholsterers, Fine Cabinet Makers, Glass strainers, etc., Art Rooms." Cottiers first major stained-glass commission in this country was for Trinity Church in Boston (1878-79), but his work is found in other contexts in the Northeast, earlier and later. He is generally credited with being the first to introduce the Aesthetic style to America.Cottier, like John La Farge, was among the first to introduce new floral subject matter to stained glass, epitomized by this window. The window relates closely to a three-panel window made for the Newport house of W. Watts Sherman in 1877-78, and now in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. This is a quintessentia

Design for Window. Artist: Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, New York 1848-1933 New York). Culture: American. Dimensions: Overall: 21 9/16 x 10 1/2 in. (54.8 x 26.7 cm)Design: 14 1/4 x 5 9/16 in. (36.2 x 14.1 cm). Maker: Tiffany Studios (1902-32). Date: late 19th-early 20th century.Memorial windows constituted a large number of the commissions received by the Tiffany Studios Ecclesiastical Department. Many of these windows depict biblical scenes, yet Tiffany often preferred designs without overtly religious references. To deflect criticism that his windows lacked religious sentiment, Tiffany and his designers frequently incorporated symbolic flowers and plants into their designs. This practice can be seen in the design drawing for a community mausoleum window, commissioned by the wealthy Kansas City lumber baron Robert A. Long. The robed woman, described as an "Angel of Resurrection" on the reverse of the mat, is surrounded by lilies, poppies, and cypresses, symbolizing the hope of li
