Wright Chat

Outside In: You bring up a good point in my opinion. Other works certainly deserve great appreciation for multiple reasons and don't seem to have the protective resources they deserve. But I understand the need for the Conservancy to focus on Wright and even that mission is sometimes hard to define ...

Paul: There are usually settings under your web browser options to allow for larger or smaller font sizes than the ones the HTML code defaults to from any particular page. The fonts (as far as I can see) are the same size as the old page, but for whatever reason, your page may not look like mine (di...

Shawn certainly has a lot of knowledge about the restoration and the plaster work. Additionally you might want to look into some specific expertise in this area done by the architect, Lauren Burge who is an expert on paint analysis and did much of the "reverse engineering" on Westcott. Als...
