Other interiors executed by the Tiffany studios show Louis’ interest in Byzantine art. The interior design of St. Mark's was under the direction of artist Rene de Quelen. De Quelen, who also studied in Paris, designed stained glass and was the head artist for the Tiffany studios for ten years. We are indebted to this creative man for this magnificent example of church ornamentation influenced by the Byzantine period.
