Jenkin Lloyd Jones Circa 1910.
Description:
Jones (November 14, 1843 - September 12, 1918) appears to be standing above the
crowd, his left hand is raised as he addresses the crowd. The entrance to an
unidentified auditorium is in the background. Hand written on verso: "Jenkin
Lloyd Jones. (Quelling a mob at Auditorium, Chicago." Etched in the
negative, bottom right hand corner: "1P-10-3-10." Jones was the uncle of
architect Frank Lloyd Wright, He became a Unitarian minister in Chicago. He
became Missionary Secretary of the Western Unitarian Conference and editor
of the liberal religious weekly, Unity. In 1889 Jones became a strong
supporter of the Hull House Settlement that had been established by Jane
Addams and Ellen Starr in the run-down Nineteenth Ward of Chicago. An
opponent of child labour and supporter of the early trade union movement,
gave lectures at Hull House to recently arrived immigrants from Europe. He
was the author of numerous works. Although Jones was the most powerful
western figure in the denomination, he encountered friction from the
American Unitarian Association (AUA) because of his independent course and
friction within the WUC because of his theological radicalism. In 1882 Jones
reorganized the Fourth Unitarian Society in Chicago as All Souls Church, and
a decade later he played a central role in the World's Parliament of
Religions, which brought together a number of world religious leaders. The
conference seemed a step toward Jones's dream of a universal church for
humankind. He ended his career as director of the
Abraham Lincoln Centre
in Chicago, where he continued to be a voice of
reform. In his last years, he spoke as a pacifist in opposition to World War
I.

published in
The Architectural

plans for the ground floor and Auditorium were published on
page 71. A revised design for the "Abraham Lincoln Center,"
Frank Lloyd Wright and Dwight Heald Perkins, Associated
Architects, was published in The Chicago Architectural
Annual, 1902. Jones was still dissatisfied, |
|
and Wright
resigned as architect. Perkins also resigned. Elements of
Wright’s original design remained, but the finished project
lost many of Wright’s ideas. In 1907, a model of the Abraham
Lincoln Center was displayed at an exhibition of Frank Lloyd
Wright’s work at the Art Institute of Chicago. The Center
included a two-story auditorium, library, offices, meeting
rooms and an apartment for Reverend Jones. Although greatly
simplified, the basic design was Frank Lloyd Wright’s. On
October 9, 2018, we had the opportunity to tour the
building, and they were gracious enough to allow us access
to the inside. Photographed during a visit to Chicago by
Douglas M. Steiner October 9, 2018. Copyright 2018. In an
effort to expedite adding these photographs to this website,
we have dispensed with a description for each photograph.

Abraham
Lincoln Center Circa 1905 (1903 - S.095). Frank Lloyd
Wright’s first design was for his Uncle, Reverend Jenkin
Lloyd Jones, was for the All Souls’ Building, 1897. The
design went though many modifications but did not proceed.
In 1900, a new design, revised, titling it the Abraham
Lincoln Center. It too went through a number of revisions. A
perspective view of "The Lincoln Center" was published in
The Architectural Review, June 1900, Spencer, p.72. Floor
plans for the ground floor and Auditorium were published on
page 71. A revised design for the "Abraham Lincoln Center,"
Frank Lloyd Wright and Dwight Heald Perkins, Associated
Architects, was published in The Chicago Architectural
Annual, 1902. Jones was still dissatisfied, and Wright
resigned as architect. Perkins also resigned. Elements of
Wright’s original design remained, but the finished project
lost many of Wright’s ideas. What was built was a very
simplified version of Wright’s design. It has been altered
greatly over the years. Photographed by the Chicago Daily
News. Hand written in negative: "Interior Lincoln Center
Auditorium." Courtesy of the Chicago History Museum. (S#0058.29.0320) |
