Frank Lloyd Wright is famous for his vast portfolio of modern architectural feats like Fallingwater and the Guggenheim. But not many know that the artist applied his talents to other creative endeavors as well.From 1926 to 1927, the American architect was commissioned by Liberty magazine to design the covers for each monthly issue. Although these pieceswere rejected by the publisher for being too “radical,” they were kept in Wright’s archive. Later on, in 1973, one of the pieces from this collection was chosen as the design for a stained glass window to decorate the Arizona Biltmore during its reconstruction.
