Reviews"The lavish photographs, particularly the archival images of White buildings that have been demolished, such as the New York Herald Building and the original Madison Square Garden, are sure to make even the most committed minimalists a bit wistful." ~The Washington Post, "The lavish photographs, particularly the archival images of White buildings that have been demolished, such as the New York Herald Building and the original Madison Square Garden, are sure to make even the most committed minimalists a bit wistful." ~The Washington Post "...a sumptuous look at the famous designer's most inventive commissions..." ~The New York Times "Two dozen fine examples of White's remarkable taste, flair, and erudition...Jonathan Wallen's excellent photography...make this book a visual treasury..." ~Interior Design Magazine "But what really puts this book in the buy category are photos by Jonathan Wallen, plus a well-reproduced stock of vintage photos. Often in full-bleed format or two-page spreads, the pictures reveal the flamboyance and at times mesmerizing strangeness of White's work." ~Traditional Building, "The lavish photographs, particularly the archival images of White buildings that have been demolished, such as the New York Herald Building and the original Madison Square Garden, are sure to make even the most committed minimalists a bit wistful." ~ The Washington Post "...a sumptuous look at the famous designer's most inventive commissions..." ~ The New York Times "Two dozen fine examples of White's remarkable taste, flair, and erudition...Jonathan Wallen's excellent photography...make this book a visual treasury..." ~ Interior Design Magazine "But what really puts this book in the buy category are photos by Jonathan Wallen, plus a well-reproduced stock of vintage photos.

SynopsisThrough all-new, full-color photography, Stanford White, Architect is the first book to explicitly feature the work of the principal genius of the illustrious American architecture firm of McKim, Mead & White. The firm was also a prime mover in the realm of residential design, with Stanford White as its visionary head. As an architect of opulent houses--in Newport, Rhode Island, along the Hudson, on the Long Island Gold Coast, and elsewhere--Stanford White had few peers. His genius for this form is expressed nowhere more wonderfully than in such personal masterpieces as his country home Box Hill and his city home in Gramercy Park. Along with residential commissions for such eminent American families as the Vanderbilts, Astors, Pulitzers, Paynes, and Whitneys, Stanford White lent his eye and hand to New York's Pennsylvania Station, Brooklyn Museum, The American Academy in Rome, and the Boston Public Library, as well as many diverse commissions, including social clubs, public buildings, churches, monuments, university buildings, and many other forms, each of which is represented in this landmark volume.
