Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

Many authorities consider Frank Lloyd Wright to be the 20th century's greatest architect. He moved to Oak Park and constructed his home in 1889. Later he built an adjoining studio and moved his practice here. Our collection includes [1] photos of his buildings in Oak Park and beyond, correspondence, rare books and magazines, and the Wasmuth Portfolio--1 of just 12 remaining portfolios that Wright made for friends and special clients.
