The inspiration for this solid brass bookmark comes from a stained glass window in the The Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio in Oak Park, Illinois. Wright built the house in 1889 and lived there until 1909.
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.
