Louis Comfort Tiffany hat mit seiner Arbeit in vielfauml;ltigen kuuml;nstlerischen Feldern ein beachtliches Erbe hinterlassen; dass bis heute uuml;berdauert hat. Als Vorreiter des Jugendstils in den USA trug er maszlig;geblich dazu bei dass das Kunsthandwerk houml;heres Ansehen in der Welt der bildenden Kuuml;nste fand. Seine Leidenschaft galt jedoch ausnahmslos dem Glas und der Glasmalerei. Seine Erfahrung als Kunsthandwerker und seinen Feinsinn fuuml;r das Zusammenspiel von Licht und Farbe kombinierend; kreierte er nicht nur einmalige; atemberaubende Kirchenfenster sondern revolutionierte auch die Welt der Gebrauchsgegenstauml;nde mit anmutigen Wandleuchten; feinteiligen Mosaiklampen und exotischen Schmuckstuuml;cken. bdquo;Tiffanyldquo; lauml;dt dazu ein; Farbe und Licht aus der Perspektive des Kuuml;nstlers ganz neu zu entdecken.

Awesome way to seeing the earth from a global perspective.By EricIm enjoying the book and the authors; Benjamin Grant; perspective on the seeing the earth in a different views which mimics my own. People can now see our earth in another way more over see how they are treating our earth. I appreciate when you put the picture in contexts of size meaning when you note that the picture is 3 square miles or see the commercial aircraft in the corner for perspective of size of the image. I think this would be a great book for use in our public education system.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Youve GOT to CHECK THIS OUT!By CustomerI just received my copy of "Overview: A New Perspective of Earth" by Benjamin Grant and am beyond pleased with what I see. This interesting and detailed view of the workings and Nature of our world is both humbling and uplifting at the same time. And the photography is exquisite! It is true that I needed to really search deeply to be able to identify what some of the photos represent; and that has made the journey into this book all the more interesting. It is a perspective we rarely; if ever; are privy to; and Ben has compiled an never-ending story of what and how we live. I enthusiastically recommend this book!Jini Loos
