The American architect Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) exerted a unique influence on the architecture of the first half of the 20th century. This volume presents the whole range of his extraordinarily profilic output and shows clearly how his view of the world was a common factor throughout the rich diversity of his oeuvre. From his early prairie houses to the Guggenheim Museum in New York, Frank Lloyd Wright saw man as the focal point of an architecture closely bound up with nature. Book jacket.
