To further contextualize the prominence of Tiffany’s religious works and to underscore his impact on Chicago’s art and architecture, the Driehaus Museum has also organized a fourteen-stop interactive self-guided tour through the city, titled Chicago's Tiffany Trail. The tour, available to download via the Driehaus Museum app, can be downloaded here for iOS and here for Android. It will build on themes explored in the exhibition and provide details on the patrons who commissioned the projects, the technologies used to realize the designs, and how each Tiffany work is incorporated into the architectural design of each environment. Simply select the Beyond the Mansion-Tiffany Trail Tour option.
Highlights include the Chicago Cultural Center, Church of Our Savior, Hyde Park Union Church, the Marquette Building, Macy's on State Street, Rosehill Mausoleum, Second Presbyterian Church, and the Levere Memorial Temple. Together, these sites emphasize the ways in which Tiffany took advantage of a critical moment in American history to further establish himself and attain new financial success and notoriety.
