Provenance: Minna Rosenblatt, New York.
Minna Rosenblatt (1914-2008) was a key figure in the first generation of antique dealers who led the revival of Tiffany lamps and French, Austrian and American art glass beginning in the 1950s, together with Lillian Nassau, Maude Feld, Bea Weiss and Gladys Koch, the so-called original "Tiffany Girls". Her clients included leaders of industry to prominent figures in the fields of entertainment and politics, including Walter P. Chrysler, Jr., David Geffen, and Barbra Streisand. The near 50-year career of Mrs. Rosenblatt culminated in 2003, at which time Christie's auction house held a landmark sale of the remaining art objects from the gallery.
