Frank Lloyd Wright Side Chair C 1990. This
Wright Slant-back chair is in the collection of MOMA, and they date it 1904,
a gift from Frank Lloyd Wright to MOMA, possibly in 1947, but they do not
identify which home it was designed for. Frank Lloyd Wright designed a
number of "slant-back" chairs. A) William E. Martin House (1902 -
S.061). William was the brother of Darwin D. Martin. The upright stile
bracing the slant-back is approximately two-thirds the height of the seat.
The stile is capped by a rectangular block, and the slant-back is twice the
height of the stile above the seat. The slant-back is padded with leather,
and held in place with tacks. (Providence Ahlers & Ogletree Auction Gallery,
April 22, 2018) B) Larkin Administration Building
Dining Room Chair. (1903 - S.093). The dining Room chairs in the Larkin
Administration building were almost exactly like the chairs for the William
E. Martin House, minus the padded leather on the slant-back. The upright
stile bracing the slant-back is approximately two-thirds the height of the
seat. The stile is capped by a rectangular block, and the slant-back is
twice the height of the stile above the seat.

South of Nathan G. Moore Home (1895 - S.034). Moore purchased the home from
Frank S. Gray in 1900 and hired Wright to remodel the home as a wedding gift
for his daughter and her husband, Mary and Edward R. Hills (1900, 1906 -
S.051). Work did not begin until 1906, and at that time, the home was moved
one lot South, enabling Moore to expand his back yard. On January 3, 1976
the home caught fire and destroyed the second floor. The home was restored
in 1977 to Wright's original plans. Stamped on verso: "Date: 8/9/90.

Prairie Avenue Bookstore, Chicago,
Illinois Circa 1990. View of two recast heads from Interior Fountain at
Midway Gardens, Chicago, Illinois. Midway Gardens was designed by Frank
Lloyd Wright in 1913, the sculptures were executed by Alfonso Iannelli.
Midway Gardens was built in 1914 and demolished in 1929. In 1939, ten years
after its destruction, Edgar Tafel, one of Frank Lloyd Wright's apprentices,
was supervising the construction of the Lloyd Lewis Residence in
Libertyville, Illinois (1939 - S.265). During that time frame, he made the
trip to Chicago to visit the site of the demolished Midway Gardens. The
elements had exposed fragments, and one was the head from the fountain in
the enclosed Winter Garden. Tafel took it back to the Lewis site and
designed and fabricated the base in the shape of interlocked cubes,
reminiscent of the designs in the Midway Garden Sprites. The Lewises loved
what he had done and convinced Tafel to leave it with them, which he later
greatly regretted. Recast from the original by Bill Hasbrouck. Bill
Hasbrouck of the Prairie Avenue Bookstore in Chicago, a landmark of its own,
was visiting the Lewises in the mid 1970s and was so excited about the piece
he convinced Katherine Lewis to allow him to borrow the original fragment to
cast and create replicas.. Continue... |

Rookery building was designed by Burnham and Root in 1888. Edward C. Waller,
a client of Wright's, managed the Rookery Building in 1905 and retained
Wright in 1905 to remodel the Entryway and Lobby. Wright's offices were
located in the building from 1898-1899. Wright removed most of Root's
original iron ornamentation and simplified it with geometric designs. He
also encased much of Root's elaborate wrought iron finishes with white
carved and gilded Carrara marble. He simplified the ironwork design, added
large prairie styled urns and designed hanging light fixtures. Stamped on

Model, 1992. Aerial view of model. The carport is on the far left, Bedrooms
in the center, Living and Dining Room on the right.
Frank Lloyd Wright's last residential
commission. In 1953,
Frank Lloyd Wright designed the first home for Louis Penfield in
Willoughby Hills, Ohio, (1953 - S.365.) In 1957, Penfield was devastated
when he learned that I-90 would be built through his property. He contacted
Wright for the second time and Wright designed Scheme II. Upon his death,
Wes Peters completed the plans. Penfield planned to build the home himself,
but came to realize it "was more than one human being could do." Wright's
last home to be built was the Lykes Residence (Job #5908), the Penfield
Scheme II was #5909, the last residential home to be designed by Wright.
This model was built by David Jatich, David Smith, Peter Jatich and Gregory

Dana lamp. The Dana Residence was designed by Frank Lloyd
Wright in 1902. Not only did Wright design the home, but the

with tools found in small shops. There are two major
differences between the original lamp and these plans; a lamp
harp is used to support the shade instead of two posts & the
base is made of walnut rather than metal. Included in the

Museum(1956 - S.400) 1992. View of entrance and spiral walls. Caption pasted
on verso: "New York: In Chicago, Frank Lloyd Wright is best known for his
so-called Prairie Style houses, which he created during the early decades of
his career. Echoing the long, low, horizontal planes of the regions
topography, these structures reflect Wright's attempts to find an American
equivalent of the simple geometry, the fluid spaces and the resonance with
nature that he so admired in Japanese architecture. By 1942, however, when
Wright was commissioned to design a home for Solomon R. Guggenheim's
impressive collection of modern art, the architect's delight in horizontal
forms had given way to a fascination with spirals. The result was the
Guggenheim Museum in New York, a building that continues to trigger awe,
frustration and controversy more than 30 years after it first opened its
doors." "The Guggenheim Museum has just emerged from a two-year, $60 million
restoration and expansion project." Stamped on verso: "August 9 1992."

Arthur Heurtley
Residence, Oak park (1902 - S.074) 1992. Viewed from the Southwest. Designed
by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1901. This was another home where Wright raised the
living spaces, Living, Dining and Kitchen to the second floor. The Entry
arch is reached by short stairs on either side of the front Terrace. As you
move through the arch, you enter another space, where the front door is on
the far right, not centered which would typical in most homes, but a typical
to Wright's designs where the entrances were hidden from the street. Through
the front door, you enter a large hall and stairs that lead up to the main
level. The face of the house is made of brick, but designed in such a way to
create horizontal lines. Photographed by Douglas M. Steiner on a trip to Oak

Mary and Edward R.
Hills Remodeling (1900, 1906 - S.051) 1992. Taken during a trip to Oak Park
in March, 1992. Viewed from the Northeast. A Victorian home was located one
lot South of the Nathan G. Moore Home (1895 - S.034). Moore purchased the
home in 1900 and hired Frank Lloyd Wright to remodel the home as a wedding
gift for his daughter and her husband, Mary and Edward R. Hills. Work did
not begin until 1906, and at that time, the home was moved one lot South,
enabling Moore to expand his back yard. During the move, Wright turned the
home 90 degrees. Where the front door originally faced the street (East), it
now faced North obscured from view. A signature of Wright's. A total
redesign created a prairie styled home. Photographed by Douglas M. Steiner

Louis Penfield House Scheme II
Model, 1992. Aerial view of model. The carport is on the far left, Bedrooms
in the center, Living and Dining Room on the right.
Frank Lloyd Wright's last
residential commission. In 1953,
Frank Lloyd Wright designed the first home for Louis Penfield in
Willoughby Hills, Ohio, (1953 - S.365.) In 1957, Penfield was devastated
when he learned that I-90 would be built through his property. He contacted
Wright for the second time and Wright designed Scheme II. Upon his death,
Wes Peters completed the plans. Penfield planned to build the home himself,
but came to realize it "was more than one human being could do." Wright's
last home to be built was the Lykes Residence (Job
#5908), the Penfield Scheme II was #5909, the last residential home to be
designed by Wright. This model was built by David Jatich, David Smith, Peter
Jatich and Gregory Seifert, Stow Ohio. Text on Verso: "Model of house

Rookery Building Entryway and Lobby
Remodeling 1993 (1905 - S.113). View of lobby, staircase and balcony. The
Rookery building was designed by Burnham and Root in 1888. Edward C. Waller,
a client of Frank Lloyd Wright's, managed the Rookery Building in 1905 and
retained Wright in 1905 to remodel the Entryway and Lobby. Wright's offices
were located in the building from 1898-1899. Wright removed most of Root's
original iron ornamentation and simplified it with geometric designs. He
also encased much of Root's elaborate wrought iron finishes with white
carved and gilded Carrara marble. He simplified the ironwork design, added
large prairie styled urns and designed hanging light fixtures. Clipping
pasted to verso: "A staircase in the atrium of The Rookery Building is one
of the features one sees on a tour of architecturally significant buildings
in Chicago. Journal photo by Ned Vespa." Stamped on verso: "93 Sep 16."

Clarence W. Sondern Residence Cypress
End Table, Kansas City, Missouri, 1993 (1939 - S.279). Perspective view of
the Sondern end table. Clarence Sondern, was a laboratory director for a
chemical company in Kansas City. The Sondern house was designed by Wright as
a Usonian home in 1939. In 1944, Sondern moved and sold the home to Arnold
Adler (1948 - S.307). In 1948, Adler commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to
design an addition that more than tripled the size of the house. Besides all
the built-ins, Wright designed chairs, tables, hassocks and bed frames for
the Sonderns. After the Adler addition was completed, an article was
published on January 7, 1951, in the Kansas City Star about the housewarming
at the Adler House. It included a photograph of the living and dining rooms,
and it is interesting to note that none of the original Wright designed
furniture was pictured in the space. Copy photograph published in Christie's
Catalog, June 12, 1993, Lot 124. Caption: "A Cypress Table Designed by Frank
Lloyd Wright for the Clarence W. Sondern House, Kansas City, Missouri, Circa
1940. Rectangular top with rectangular slab legs 18.5 in. high, 27.75 in.
wide, 18.625 in. deep." Realized price, $2,070. 8 x 10 color copy

Clarence W. Sondern Residence
Armchair, 1993 (1939 - S.279). Clarence Sondern, a laboratory director of a
chemical company in Kansas City. The Sondern house was designed by Wright as
a Usonian home in 1939. Wright designed three chairs for the home, published
in "Frank Lloyd Wright
Monograph 1937-1941 (6)," Pfeiffer, p.183. 1) "Lounge Chair." This chair
(pictured) appears to be different than what Wright designed. "Revised chair
details:" 2) Upholstered seats and 3) Dining Chair. This chair (pictured)
appears to be a closer representation of #2, but with a few minor changes.
#3, Dining Chair was also produced, but again with changes. In 1948, Arnold
Adler (1948 - S.307) purchased the home and hired Wright to remodel and
double the size of the home. This armchair was manufactured of cypress and
cypress-faced plywood with upholstery, 30.5 x 24.75 x 26.25. A matching
chair was sold at Christie's on May 12, 2005, for $24,000. A pair of Dining
Chairs (#3) sold at Wright's Auction on December 11, 2014, for $19,000. They
were originally in the Domino Pizza collection. "Frank

Edward C. Waller Apartments
(1895 S.031) (1993). Edward C. Waller was an important early Wright patron.
He lived in River Forest near Wright's William Winslow house. Waller sold
Winslow the property upon which his home was built. Waller commissioned
several projects to be designed by Wright: the Francisco Terrace Apartments
1895 (S.030) (since demolished); the Waller Apartment 1895 (S.031); the
remodeling of his home in River Forest 1899 (S.047); the Edward C. Waller
Gates (S.065) and Stables (S.066) 1901; and the Edward C. Waller Bathing
Pavilion 1909 (S.166). Waller's son Edward C. Jr. commissioned Midway
Gardens 1913 (S.180). The Waller Apartments consisted of five units
(numbered right to left). Unit #1 on the East end (right) and #5 to the West
end (left). Unit #4 (second from left) was demolished in 1968 after a fire
gutted the unit. Center entrance is possibly unit #2. The Francisco Terrace
Apartments (S.030) were directly behind these units. Clipping pasted to
verso: "The two abandoned properties at 2844 and 2848 W. Walnut were slated
by the city to be torn down and would have been had a red light not gone

September 1994. Designed in 1917 by Frank Lloyd Wright as an appropriate
style for Southern California, the house was built in 1920-1921. Barnsdall's
plan for the 36 acre Olive Hill was to include her home, theater and an arts
community. Of all the projects Wright designed, only Hollyhock House and two
additional residences were built. Residence B was demolished. Barnsdall
lived in the home until 1927, when she gave Hollyhock House and eleven
surrounding acres to the city of Los Angeles for use as a public art park in
memory of her father, Theodore Barnsdall. For the next fifteen years the
house was home to the California Art Club. Photographed by Douglas M.

Warren Hickox Residence,
Kankakee, Illinois, Windows and Doors 1994 (1900 - S.056). Photograph of
art-glass doors and transom windows from the Hickox Residence. In 1994,
Thomas Heinz published this photograph of the windows and doors sold in 1993
at Christies Auction. Caption: Hickox, Warren. Doors and Transom. One of
Wright's earliest motifs, the detailed border surrounding a large area of
clear glass, was used in this house and the neighboring Bradley House
(0002). Photo courtesy: Michael FitzSimmons Decorative Arts, Chicago.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Glass Art, p.66. See details of the
top left and top right windows in the
photograph. In 2000, Heinz published this photograph again with this
description: Parallel diagonal lines are offset from one another and
establish a pure abstraction of borders in the Hickox windows. There is no
color in this design, only white milk glass at a few joints. As with the
Bradley House windows, the diagonals are angled the same as the pitch of the
roof. This pattern is more sophisticated than those of the Bradley House and
with the diagonals, more dynamic. Wright uses a hexagonal medallion window
within an octagonal bay of the building. He mixes geometries in proximity
and makes it work without a sense of conflict that one might expect. Each

Samuel and Harriet Freeman
Residence 1995. (1923 - S.216). The Freeman Residence was Frank Lloyd
Wright's third textile block home in California: 1) Millard (La Miniatura),
2) Storer, 4) Ennis. A two-story home, the Entrance, Living Room, Balcon and
Kitchen are on the main floor. The lower level includes two Bedrooms,
Lounge, Bath and Storage. Both the West and East corners of the South
elevation are formed by mitered glass corners that run the full length of
two floors. Wright utilized this concept again in 1935 when he designed
Fallingwater. Each textile block was 16" x 16". Wright continued the 16"
measurement in the details of the design. Some blocks were perforated, glass
was added, allowing additional light into the Living Room, creating patters
of light on the interior. Deterioration of the textile block is very
evident. Set of 24 photographs taken during a trip to California in 1995. 24

Jiyu Gakuen
Girls' School (1921 - S.213). Undated set of seven photographs, descriptive
sheet and envelop. The Jiyu Gakuen Girls' School began on April 15th, 1921
with thirty students. While working on the Imperial Hotel (1915-1923 -
S.194), Frank Lloyd Wright was contacted by Mr. And Mrs. Hani. "This little
school building was designed for the Jiyu-Gakuen - in the same spirit
implied by the name of the school - a free spirit. It was intended to be
simple happy place for happy children - unpretentious - genuine. It is built
in no certified style. It has style all its own. Whether one likes or
dislikes it, the style is harmoniously founded on right principles... The
architects have felt this in working out this design with Mr. And Mrs. Hani,

reprinted from "Our Life in the
Jiyu Gakuen" 1930. Wright's design consisted of the larger
building in the center incorporating a two-story Living Room/Classroom in
the front. The rear included an Assembly Hall on the first floor and a
Dining Hall on the second floor. Two classrooms where on either side of the
main building. Additional classrooms were added later creating a U-Shaped
building seen today. Arata Endo was Wright's assistant on the Imperial
Hotel. He was most likely responsible for the additional classrooms. Arata
Endo pasted way in 1951. An effort began in 1990 to save and restore the
building. In 1997 it was designated a National Important Cultural Status.
Restoration began in January 1999 and was completed in September 2001.

father, and at 30 years old, in 1957 became Wright's last apprentice from
Japan. After returning to Japan he became an architect. He past away in

Description sheet and envelope. "This little school
building was designed for the Jiyu-Gakuen - in the same spirit implied by
the name of the school - a free spirit. It was intended to be simple happy
place for happy children - unpretentious - genuine. It is built in no
certified style. It has style all its own. Whether one likes or dislikes it,
the style is harmoniously founded on right principles... The architects have
felt this in working out this design with Mr. And Mrs. Hani, and are happy
to see the building carrying its children as a tree carries its blossoms.
The children seem to belong to the building in quite the same way as the
flowers belong to the tree, and the building belongs to them as the tree
belongs to its flowers... Frank Lloyd Wright, Arata Endo." Text reprinted

Snow Flake Motel, St. Joseph, MI
1997. Designed by William Wesley Peters in 1960, construction began in 1961,
and opened for business in 1962. According to the National Registry of
Historic Places: "Around 1958, Sahag Sarkisian. a wealthy oriental rug
dealer in St. Joseph . approached Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Fellowship
(which became Taliesin Associated Architects after Wright's death) about
designing a unique luxury motel for his recently purchased property...
Sarkisian got the idea to consult Wright from his friend Carl Schultz, who
had just moved into his new residence in St. Joseph designed by the
architect. The extent of Wright's direct involvement in the design remains
unclear, but he is said to have flown over the proposed site and approved
it..." Scott Elliot contends that Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Motel in
1955. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998, but
demolished in 2006. Photographed by Carol M. Highsmith. Original 7 x 5 Color
