1044) Turismo academico (3): da Florida a Georgia

Dia de viagem e de visitas, nesta sexta-feira 27 de março.
Lembrancinhas no aeroporto de Miami, melhor do que que qualquer shopping pela variedade e preços imbatíveis.
Lanche rápido, que passa por almoço, depois saída para a estrada: I-95 Norte e depois Florida Turnpike. No caminho, ainda quente, uma parada numa Plaza de estrada para tomar um Frapuccino Java e entrada em Orlando, depois Winter Park.
Recomendo a visita a este museu:

Sobretudo em função destas exposições:

Art Jewelry, Favrile Metalwork & Precious Glass
by Louis Comfort Tiffany
Reinstalled in March 2008, this permanent gallery features about three dozen objects, including 11 pieces of jewelry that Tiffany designed for the new art jewelry division he established at Tiffany & Co. after his father died in 1905.
Tiffany Peacock

Selected Works of Louis Comfort Tiffany from the Morse Collection
The first three galleries at the Morse have been installed with more than 100 objects that represent what an art critic in 1900 noted as Tiffany’s “dumbfounding versatility.” These works include 14 leaded-glass windows as well as examples of lamps, art glass, ceramics, and metalwork.
Glassmaking

Secrets of Tiffany Glassmaking
Through photographs, models, tools, and art objects, this teaching exhibit shows the range of Louis C. Tiffany’s glass production, from mosaics and molded-glass jewels to leaded-glass windows and lamps, providing insights into the techniques employed by his artisans.
