""The Boyd Family Memorial Window (The Falls) is an exceptional example of the Studio's technical brilliance, emotional depth, and command of color and light," said Victoria Tudor, head of design at Christie's."
""Windows featuring a waterfall prominently in the foreground are exceedingly rare within Tiffany's oeuvre, making this example an extraordinary highlight of the Design sale.""
""The window's appearance at Christie's continues a steady drip of turn-of-the-century Tiffany masterpieces finding new homes in recent years.""
A Tiffany window, known as The Boyd Family Memorial Window, will be featured in Christie's design sale, potentially fetching $2 million. Installed in 1899 at Second Congregational Church in Winsted, Connecticut, it depicts a sunset landscape with a waterfall and vibrant flowers. Commissioned by Ellen Wright Boyd in memory of her parents, the window showcases Tiffany's technical brilliance and is a rare example of the studio's work. Proceeds from the sale will benefit the church's mission and ministries.
