Frank Lloyd Wright

Offered is an original Taliesin Spring Green, Wisconsin typed note dated August 19, 1940, personally signed by Frank Lloyd Wright in black ink. The note is addressed to. Day was an accomplished Philadelphia architect, housing planner, and educator. The son of prominent architect Frank Miles Day, Kenneth established his own architectural practice and later taught architecture at Yale University, making this correspondence one between two significant American architects. My dear Day: Intend staying only for the office I perform but thank you sincerely for your kind invitation. The message reflects a cordial professional friendship, with Wright politely declining Day’s invitation while expressing his appreciation. Signed correspondence exchanged directly between Frank Lloyd Wright and fellow architects is considerably scarcer than routine business letters and offers a fascinating glimpse into Wright’s professional network during the early 1940s. The signature is a bold example of Wright’s characteristic autograph and appears on original Taliesin stationery from Spring Green, Wisconsin, predating the establishment of Taliesin West as his primary winter residence. Condition: Good vintage condition with expected mailing folds, light age toning, and scattered brown spotting near the lower portion of the sheet as shown in the photographs. The spotting does not affect the text or signature. Please review all photos carefully, as they are an important part of the description. A wonderful opportunity to acquire an original signed Frank Lloyd Wright document connected to another important American architect and dating to the height of Wright’s career. From the Scottsdale, Arizona estate of a prominent Frank Lloyd Wright collector and Taliesin student.
