Item description from seller

Quarto. Hardcover. Illustrated boards. Front with a architectural sketch, rear with a photo of the architect. Grey Cloth binding. Illustrated end papers. 284 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 29 cm. With such masterworks as the Schindler-Chace House and the Lovell Beach House in California, the Vienna-born modernist R.M. Schindler (1887-1953) is recognized as one of the most innovative architects of the 20th century. Nearly 50 years after his death, admiration for his breathtakingly original houses and apartment buildings is at an all-time peak. Containing many never-published drawings and photographs and spanning Schindler's early years in Vienna, his apprenticeship with Frank Lloyd Wright, and his bold contributions to West Coast modernism, this book -- which accompanies the first major Schindler retrospective -- offers the most comprehensive view of his genius to date. VG-. Ex-lib with typical markings. Jacket in sleeve. Some toning around text block edges and a little bumping at the corner. Binding still nice and strong.
