West, Scottsdale, Arizona, 1946, (1937-38 - S.245). View of
the Kiva Theatre. In 1946, Elizabeth Gordon, editor of House
Beautiful, made the decision to show case Taliesin West, the
winter home and studio of Frank Lloyd Wright. "One man’s
house. We give much lip service to two architectural
principles: That a man's house should be a personal
expression and that it should take its place naturally in
the landscape. Frank Lloyd Wright's winter home and work
shop in Arizona really does both. The result is beautiful,
exciting, and very hard to explain..." Photographer Maynard
