?? ?????????????? ???????????? ???? ?????? ?????????????? A true icon of Art Nouveau design, this Tiffany Studios ??????-?????????? ???????? ???????? (c.1905) embodies the delicate craftsmanship and timeless beauty of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s work. Featuring a patinated bronze pond lily base and six original favrile glass shades, each etch signed ‘L.C.T., Favrile’, this lamp reflects Tiffany’s mastery of light, form, and color. Tiffany’s favrile glass was a groundbreaking innovation, chemically treated to create its signature iridescence. Unlike painted glass, the shimmering hues were embedded in the glass itself, ensuring their brilliance would last for generations. Leonard Auction extends its gratitude to Philip Chasen for his expertise in identifying this exquisite piece.

??????-?????????????? ??????????????????????: ???????????? & ???????????? ?????????????? ??’?????? ?????????????? ?????????? A stunning fusion of art and function, this ??’?????? ?????????????? ?????????? by Philip and Kelvin LaVerne is a prime example of their signature metal artistry. Crafted in the 1960s, the acid-etched and patinated polychrome bronze, pewter, and parcel-gilt surface reflects their deep appreciation for ancient Chinese motifs, a recurring theme in their work. Philip and Kelvin LaVerne developed a unique patination process that involved burying their metal furniture in special chemicals and soil for weeks, allowing the materials to age organically and achieve their signature antiqued look. This closely guarded technique ensured that each work of art evolved beautifully over time.

??????????????’?? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? Pablo Picasso’s ???????? ???? ?????????? (Head of a Woman) is a stunning example of his mastery in lithography, a medium he explored extensively in the late 1940s. This piece captures the essence of his post-war period—bold, expressive, and undeniably innovative. Picasso’s fascination with the human form, especially female portraits, evolved throughout his career, shifting from the cubist deconstructions of the early 20th century to the fluid, organic lines seen in works like this one. ?????? ?????? ????????? The largest collection of Picasso’s works in the U.S. is housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, featuring more than 400 pieces spanning multiple mediums. His artistic influence is felt worldwide, but his lithographs remain some of his most approachable and collectible works. ???????? ???? ?????????? is available in our ?????????????????????? & ???????????? ?????????????? ???? ?????????? ???? ???? ???? ???? ????.
