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. Frank Lloyd Wright Interiors and Furniture, Heinz, 1994, p.80...  Continue...

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..

Rookery Building Entryway and Lobby Remodeling (1905 - S.113) 1990. View of exterior of the Skylight. The 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.

Guggenheim 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."

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.

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 unit within...  Continue... 1994.148.0124

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.

Circa 1995 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, 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 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. Photographs by Raku Endo, son of Arata Endo. He was born in 1927. He attended the Jiyu Gakuen School after it became coed. He worked with his 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 2003.
