In the life of Frank Lloyd Wright

The whole life

  1. 1905

    Visits the Rinnō-ji temples in Japan

    Wright visited the Rinnō-ji temple complex in Japan; its shrine-style layout probably inspired Unity Temple. A passionate Japanophile, he claimed to be “enslaved” by ukiyo-e prints, and for a time earned more from dealing in Japanese art than from architecture.

  2. 1909

    Leaves for Europe with Mamah Cheney

    Leaving their spouses and children behind, Wright and Mamah Cheney met up in Europe. He stayed almost a year — first in Florence with his eldest son Lloyd, then in Fiesole with Mamah; her husband granted her a divorce, but Wright's wife Catherine refused him one.

  3. 1910

    The Wasmuth Portfolio makes Wright known in Europe

    During a journey through Germany Wright published a two-volume portfolio of his buildings and designs (the Wasmuth edition), and his work became known in Europe.
