Digital Image Collection

The Digital Image Collection documents the buildings of Wright’s early career, changes made to some of his most important early structures since construction, clients and residents of the homes designed during the architect’s Oak Park years, and the Wright family. The photographs provide visual access to Wright’s impact on the built and social environment of turn-of-the-twentieth-century Chicago.

The collection is divided into three areas:

History and restoration of the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio

History and restoration of the Frederick C. Robie House

Frank Lloyd Wright in the Chicago area
