installed by exhibition designer Jeff Daly (formerly with the Metropolitan
Museum of Art), "Treasures from the Driehaus Collection" presents a range of
work, including a candelabra from the 1893 fair and an astrological mosaic from
the long-gone Men's Grille at Marshall Field's. And while visitors will be
delighted by the fluid forms of the vases and the rich botanical beauty of the
lamps, collector Richard Driehaus is partial to Tiffany's stained glass

various zones, control the intensity and depth of color. The effect is
phenomenal, and these windows come alive in a way they probably didn't when they
were new.
"It doesn't hurt that these and all the other items on view
are presented in the former Nickerson mansion, built between 1879 and 1883. With
its grand entry hall (clad in over 17 types of marble), domed sculpture gallery,
jewel-like smoking room, and handsome library, this properly impressive home is
a jaw-dropping manifestation of the good life in the late 19th century. Although
it is not known if the Nickerson family members were patrons of Tiffany, this
richly executed Gilded Age residence is an eminently appropriate envelope for
the work his studio produced. As Driehaus Museum director Lise Dubé-Scherr
notes, "Aside from the fact that the exhibition reveals a great personal
collection, aside from the fact that we explore Tiffany in Chicago, I think what
will blow people away is seeing these objects in magnificent rooms of the
period. When you see these pieces in this context, they do take on a new
meaning; you do read them in a different way.
