Other things I did on my travels - Having been edumacated re: Tiffany's mosaics by the exhibit in Corning, I paid attention to where else there might be some. There is one in the church in Richmond, VA. It turns out that if you want to see Tiffany, the area around Richmond and Petersburg is replete with it. Unfortunately, this is tied to the more unsavory aspects of American history. Then again, we need to face and deal with that, so maybe it's not the worst way to get people's attention.
This is the altarpiece at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Richmond. It is Tiffany mosaic of The Last Supper from 1896. The floor and rail around the altar also have mosaic elements, but I couldn't tell if they were Tiffany or not. My guess is not, since it isn't mentioned anywhere I could find, but there were other churches where they had done floors and railings so it is theoretically possible.
