The artwork titled “Dragonfly” was created by Louis Comfort Tiffany, a prominent figure in the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement. This piece belongs to the genre of design and is part of the “Tiffany lampshades” series.
The artwork exemplifies Tiffany’s mastery in stained glass design, featuring a cone-shaped lampshade adorned with intricate representations of dragonflies. The lampshade is composed of meticulously arranged glass pieces in vibrant hues, predominantly blue and green, interspersed with accents of yellow and amber. The dragonflies are distinguished by their detailed, mosaic-like wings and elongated bodies, rendered in green and set against the blue background. The edge of the lampshade is encircled by a border with a yellow and green checkered pattern, adding to its ornate appearance. The overall design captures the essence of the Art Nouveau style, with its emphasis on natural forms and flowing lines.
