Frank Lloyd Wright designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years playing a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". Hewas recognized in 1991 by the American Institute of Architects as "the greatest American architect of all time".

History, meet style.
This Frank Lloyd Wright Saguaro Wood Framed Stained Glass vividly recreates one of Wright's most popular designs. The design is one of a number of Liberty Magazine cover designs from 1926-27 that the editors thought to be too "radical" and never used. In 1973 there was a fire in the Arizona Biltmore. This graphic was selected from the Frank Lloyd Wright Archive to be rendered in stained glass in the reconstructed foyer. On this glass panel, enamel colors are individually applied to a single sheet of glass which is then kiln fired to permanently fuse the enamels to the glass. The glass is then wood framed with matching stand, with optional hardware and chain for hanging. Ht: 13.25". W 10.5".
This back-lit geometric stained glass mural by Frank Lloyd Wright is in the foyer of the Arizona Biltmore. It was originally designed in 1930 for the cover of an anthology of lectures Wright gave at Princeton entitled Modern Architecture.
