He sought Mr. Tiffany, who was enthusiastic over the idea of making an example of his mosaic glass of such dimensions which should remain in this country, and gladly offered to co-operate. But, try as he might, Bok could not secure an adequate sketch for Mr. Tiffany to carry out. Then he recalled that one day while at Maxfield Parrish's summer home in New Hampshire the artist had told him of a dream garden which he would like to construct, not on canvas but in reality. Bok suggested to Parrish that he come to New York. He asked him if he could put his dream garden on canvas. The artist thought he could; in fact, was greatly attracted to the idea; but he knew nothing of mosaic work, and was not particularly attracted by the idea of having his work rendered in that medium.

白话
博克去找蒂芙尼,蒂芙尼一听就来了劲:用他的马赛克玻璃做一幅这么大的作品,还能留在美国,他乐意合作。可博克怎么都找不到一张合适的草图给蒂芙尼照着做。他想起画家帕里什曾在避暑时说过,想造一座梦中的花园,不是画在画布上,而是真造出来。博克就请帕里什来纽约,问他能不能先把这梦花园画成画。帕里什觉得可以,也很动心,但他不懂马赛克,也不太愿意让自己的画变成玻璃镶嵌。核心是:好点子卡在“没人能画出来”上,得找到对的人,还得说服他跨行合作。
上下文
博克为杂志社大楼的玻璃装饰找方案,先找玻璃大师蒂芙尼,再想到画家帕里什。
今日一问
你卡住的事,是不是缺一个愿意跨行合作的人?
