Opis: Letters to his Family - Stanford White, S White

These letters and sketches by Stanford White were left by Lawrence Grant White, when he died in 1956. He had mounted them in beautiful leather-bound books, each impetuously scribbled letter accompanied by a typewritten transcription. It was so obviously the labor of love and admiration of a son for his father that this alone made them precious.
"These letters and sketches convey vividly the exhilaration of a young American architect coming to happy terms with his discovery of the beautiful edifices of an old Europe and the infinite potentialities of his own art to emulate them. White's appetite for living seemed never to be satiated; there seemed little borderline between his pleasures and his work, whether he was fishing, hunting, partying in Gotham, hiking over Mexican deserts infested with hostile Indians, or sketching, designing, projecting vast buildings and parks. Art was life."--Louis Auchincloss
