Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition, Special Edition. Frank Lloyd Wright: The Early Work is a book that showcases Wright's architectural designs from his formative years, originally published in 1911 as Ausgeführte Bauten in Berlin and later reprinted by publishers like Horizon Press (1968) and Dover Publications (1983)…. It features numerous black-and-white photographs and floor plans of his early buildings, including the Unity Temple, Dana House, and Larkin Factory, offering a comprehensive look at his developing Prairie School style. The Famous WASMUTH edition of 1911 has now been reissued and in such a manner as to be more useful and serviceable than before.The bookis not merely a document in the history of modern architecture; it is a splendid and perhaps the best source of photographs of Wright's early work.A new introduction by Edgar Kaufmann, Jr. .helps establish for the reader the aims and impact of this book and its significance. It has more to offer and is better presented than the rare original.a basic work for an study of Frank Lloyd Wright. The pages and hardcover are on excellent fine condition and with no markings, only the owners name on the cover sheet.
