Book excerpt: Many scholars consider Henry Hobson Richardson (1838-1886) to have been America's preeminent Victorian architect. His Brookline office was in fact one of this country's first large and influential working studios, including Stanford White and Charles F. McKim among the many architects who received their first training under Richardson. This beautifully produced and skillfully organized book documents an exhibition of drawings selected from the collection of Harvard's Houghton Library. The drawings are from Richardson's Brookline office and represent the years of his mature period when he produced almost all of his major designs, to his death. These are supplemented by photographs, many contemporary with the completed projects and showing them as they were. James F. O'Gorman, the leading Richardson historian of his generation, has written an introductory essay, "The Making of a 'Richardson Building,' 1874-1886," which shows how the transformation from casual sketch to completed building took place. O'Gorman brings to life the complex interaction of design talent, social contacts, and enduring working relationships with gifted associates that were necessary to bring Richardson's architectural ideas to fruition. Originally published in 1974 by David Godine and Harvard College Library, O'Gorman's catalogue has come to be accepted as a primary source of insight and information on the design process, Richardson's genius, and the social and historical context of his professional life.

Download or read book Henry Austin written by James F. O’Gorman and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Historic New England Book Prize (2009) Winner of the Henry-Russell Hitchcock Book Award (2010) Henry Austin's (1804–1891) works receive consideration in books on nineteenth-century architecture, yet no book has focused scholarly attention on his primary achievements in New Haven, Connecticut, in Portland, Maine, and elsewhere. Austin was most active during the antebellum era, designing exotic buildings that have captured the imaginations of many for decades. James F. O'Gorman deftly documents Austin's work during the 1840s and '50s, the time when Austin was most productive and creative, and for which a wealth of material exists. The book is organized according to various building types: domestic, ecclesiastic, public, and commercial. O'Gorman helps to clarify what buildings should be attributed to the architect and comments on the various styles that went into his eclectic designs. Henry Austin is lavishly illustrated with 132 illustrations, including 32 in full color. Three extensive appendices provide valuable information on Austin's books, drawings, and his office.

Download or read book The Chicago School of Architecture written by Carl W. Condit and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1964 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoroughly illustrated classic study traces the history of the world-famous Chicago school of architecture from its beginnings with the functional innovations of William Le Baron Jenney and others to their imaginative development by Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. The Chicago School of Architecture places the Chicago school in its historical setting, showing it at once to be the culmination of an iron and concrete construction and the chief pioneer in the evolution of modern architecture. It also assesses the achievements of the school in terms of the economic, social, and cultural growth of Chicago at the turn of the century, and it shows the ultimate meaning of the Chicago work for contemporary architecture. "A major contribution [by] one of the world's master-historians of building technique."—Reyner Banham, Arts Magazine "A rich, organized record of the distinguished architecture with which Chicago lives and influences the world."—Ruth Moore, Chicago Sun-Times
