The Life-Work of the American Architect Frank Lloyd Wright. 4o (330 x 325 mm). Plans for the Harold McCormick House Illinois, are depicted on pp. The seven consecutive special issues of Wendingen were bound together. It is the first major publication of Wright’s works since the 1910-11 publication of Ausgeführte Bauten. Published by the Amsterdam society of architects Architectura et Amicitia, Wendingen was to be devoted to architecture, construction and ornamentation. The magazine was published from 1918 to 1932. Using a revolutionary new typography, it presented designs covering a wide range of both national, and international contemporary artists. Ex-library, the first few pages are rough, as pictured, so could do with some repair, though most of the other pages are clean.

RICHARD HAAS 20 c. American ARCHITECTURAL LITHOGRAPH Old Waterworks Philadelphia

Original lithograph of the Fairmount Water Works building on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia PA. American artist Richard Haas b. Biography from artnet: Richard Haas is a practitioner of the trompe l’oeil artistic style, a technique that uses realistic images in a way that tricks the eye into perceiving the painting in three dimensions. Haas has painted hundreds of murals that incorporate trompe l’oeil methods in the depiction of the architectural features of the building. He was born in Spring Greene but grew up in Milwaukee, WI. He graduated in 1959 from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a Bachelor in Art. He spent several years as an assistant professor at the University of Michigan before he moved to New York City in 1968. Haas spent 10 years teaching at Vermont’s Bennington College, splitting his time between the school and New York. Haas worked for many years as an Abstract painter who used traditional canvas media. He later developed an interest in drawing and etching the details of late 19th century and early 20th century New York City buildings. The artist’s first outdoor mural, a commission to paint the cast iron façade at the corner of Prince Street and Greene Street, was completed in 1975. His other notable murals include Fort Worth, Texas’ Homage to Chisholm Trail, Gateway to the Waterfront in Yonkers, and Michigan’s The Dwelling Place. Haas’s awards include the 1983 Guggenheim Fellowship, the 2003 Westchester Arts Council Artist Award, and the 2005 Jimmy Ernst Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Hass’s murals were the subject of the 1989 documentary film Painting the Town: The Illusionistic Murals of Richard Haas. He wrote The City is My Canvas and Richard Haas: An Architecture of Illusion. Many famed museums hold examples of Hass’s work in their collections, including Washington, D. S Smithsonian Institution, New York’s Museum of Modern Art, and Massachusetts’s Boston Museum of Fine Art. Haas still lives in New York City, but he often travels to paint commissioned murals. Lithograph in colors on paper. Pencil signed Richard Haas. Measures 17 1/2″ x 25 5/8″ image. Framed size 23 1/2″ x 32 1/4″.

This is a nice, original October 1941 issue of Scribner’s Commentator. In May 1939, Scibner’s Magazine ceased publication due to low circulation compared to Harper’s Monthly and The Atlantic Monthly. The magazine was then merged with the pictorial Commentator, to become Scribner’s Commentator in November 1939. Scribner’s Commentator also ceased publication in 1942 after one of the magazine’s staff pleaded guilty to taking payoffs from the Japanese government, in return for publishing propaganda promoting United States isolationism. Measures 6.25″ x 9″ and contains 111 pages. There is some mild surface discoloration and some wear at edges, small tear/bump on left side front cover and pages throughout, light corner creases to covers. A great addition to any collection!
