This exhibition of 27 photographs from the Morse's permanent collection is the first known exhibition of photographs by Louis C. Tiffany (1848-1933).

Tiffany was America's design master at the turn of the century. Most people know his lamps, many know his revolutionary and internationally heralded leaded-glass windows, and some know of his mosaics and interior design. But few have any idea that he was also a photographer whose interest in the medium went beyond the help it could be on a practical level and extended to the regions of photographic art. His many subjects included people, plants, boats, and landscapes.
