Frank Lloyd Wright submitted “April Showers” to Liberty Magazine. It was considered too avant-garde and rejected. In this design, Wright masterfully used the tools of his trade (a t-square, triangle, compass, colored pencils) to create enduring art that captures the essence of spring.
Frank Lloyd Wright was born in Richland Center, Wisconsin in 1867, and Taliesin, Wright's home, studio and country estate, is located in the hilly Driftless Region of southwestern Wisconsin near Spring Green. Wright's “Prairie style” became the basis of 20th-century residential design in the United States, and his furniture, art, and writing was crucial to twentieth-century architectural development and has a profound influence on the decorative arts to this day.
