Fortuny Lamp
Fortuny Lamp
The Fortuny Lamp (1907) represents the early modernist emphasis on industrial materials, functional style and the spatial role of objects. As compelling as modern sculpture, the lamp dominates space, but also stands up to inspection of every well-engineered detail. This may be the most passionate and powerful piece of lighting ever produced. It is height-adjustable and rotates to direct light as desired. Dramatic in larger spaces: reception areas, restaurants or an open living area.

Mariano Fortuny
Celebrated by his contemporaries as "The Magician of Venice", Mariano Fortuny was perhaps the last Renaissance man in the truest meaning of the term. Though trained as a painter, Fortuny was an accomplished and innovative stage-set designer, architect, inventor, couturier, and lighting technician. Born in the ancient Spanish city of Granada to an artistic family (both of his parents were highly-regarded painters), Fortuny was raised first in Paris then Venice, where he spent most of his life. Fortuny is now most remembered for his dress designs, which were fabricated from an innovative pleated silk, produced by machines designed and patented by Fortuny, and is the forerunner to Issey Miyake's efforts. Fortuny also patented numerous stage and lighting innovations, culminating with the Fortuny cyclorama dome, which could easily change stage lighting from a bright sky to a faint dusk...
