Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art

The Write-Up

The full story

Guests call the Morse a jewel box of Louis Comfort Tiffany, a small museum with a big impact on Park Avenue. The galleries are peaceful and serene, all leaded-glass windows, glowing lamps and iridescent glass that shifts as you move, and the Tiffany Chapel, a whole mosaic and stained glass interior, is the breathtaking centerpiece. The Daffodil Terrace and the depth of the collection make it a feast for the eyes that rewards slowing down.
