The Architecture of Howard Van Doren Shaw

The Architecture of Howard Van Doren Shaw by Greene, Virginia A.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781556522864.

More than 200 historic photographs and plans provide a rare look at the buildings, projects, and interiors of this prolific American architect. Though Shaw (1869-1926) was one of the leading architects of his time and designed many landmark buildings (e.g., The Goodman Memorial Theatre and McKinlock Court at the Art Institute of Chicago), his work has been overshadowed by that of his contemporary, Frank Lloyd Wright. Greene, an architect, includes a biography, a list of all the buildings and projects designed by Shaw, and maps to many of his existing buildings. Annotation c.
