Glassmasters Louis C Tiffany Summer's Day Catcher Stained Glass Brass Framed 9 1/4" x 12 7/8"Summer's Day from Louis C. Tiffany, made by Glassmasters. This beautiful framed stained glass panel measures 9" x 13"One of Louis Comfort Tiffany's favorite themes and one of his most successful commercially were his panoramic landscapes. This window, originally executed for a mansion at 73 Hemenway Street in Boston is recognized for the technique Louis Comfort Tiffany perfected. The graining on the wooden fence, the rippled texture of the water, and the cloud formations in the sky, permitted the L. C. Tiffany Studios to achieve the most naturalistic effects in glass in the history of the medium.Glassmasters is particularly proud of this reproduction which captures the subtle hues and luminous quality of the glass interpreted by Louis Comfort Tiffany. As with all Glassmasters ' designs, all custom enamel paints used were put down one color at a time, and then each layer was dried at 300 degrees Fahrenheit . Once as many as 21 layers of color were applied, the panel was then kiln-fired at 1100 degrees Fahrenheit, at which temperature the glass became porous and almost melted, allowing the paints to penetrate the surface of the glass, permanently fusing with it. This process achieved vibrant colors that can withstand decades, if not centuries
