This illustrated history highlights the diversity and innovation of American ceramics in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as artists responded to historical precedents and emerging modernist styles around the worldBetween the early 1880s and the early 1950s, pioneering American artists drew upon the rich traditions and recent innovations of European and Asian ceramics to develop new designs, decorations, and techniques. With splendid new photography, this book showcases these American interpretations of international trends, from the Arts and Crafts and Art Deco movements, through the modernism of Matisse and the Wiener Werkstätte, to abstracted, minimalist styles.Illustrations of more than 180 exemplary works—some of these never before published—accompany engaging essays by two of the foremost experts on American art pottery. The featured makers include Rookwood, Grueby, and Van Briggle potteries, as well as artists including Maija Grotell, George E. Ohr, Frederick Hurten Rhead, Louis Comfort Tiffany, Rockwell Kent, Adelaide Alsop Robineau, and Leza McVey. A vivid and accessible overview of American ceramics and ceramists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this publication reveals how diverse and global sources inspired works of astonishing ingenuity and variety by artists working in the United States.

An in-depth study of the design drawings for Louis Comfort Tiffany’s celebrated stained-glass windows, lamps, mosaics, and interiorsDesigning the Gilded Age goes behind the scenes of some of the era’s most iconic designs, presenting 150 rarely seen drawings by the artists who worked in the studios of Louis Comfort Tiffany. While recognizing Tiffany’s own artistry, it highlights the contributions of other designers, including women and immigrants, whose identities have been subsumed under the Tiffany name. Many of these design drawings—for stained-glass windows, mosaics, and lighting, as well as for domestic, religious, and public interiors destined for commissions across the United States and internationally—were severely damaged over time and have been painstakingly restored to their full beauty. Some of the drawings are the only remaining evidence of works that were destroyed or never realized. In addition to beautiful photography of the recently conserved works on paper, the book includes images of works that are still extant, providing a unique opportunity to view the drawings and finished products side by side. Also discussed are discoveries made through technical analysis about the artistic process and the styles of individual designers; the influence of artistic patronage and religion in the design process; and the cultural priorities of the Gilded Age.Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art/Distributed by Yale University PressExhibition Schedule:The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York(October 22, 2026–February 7, 2027)
