Artist's Comments

Falling Waters is the masterpiece of Frank Lloyd Wright. Designed in 1935 for Edgar J. Kaufmann, owner of Kaufmann's Department Stores.

Falling Waters is located on 5,000 acres in the Laurel Highlands of the Allegheny Mountains about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. To learn more about Falling Waters, the Kaufmanns and Frank Lloyd Wright visit the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy web site at: [link]

St. Francis said,
“A man who uses his hands is a laborer. One who uses his hands and mind is a craftsman. He who uses his hands, and his mind, and his heart is an artist.”

FLW was so ahead of his time. If one didn't know, you would swear just by looking at the design that it was designed 30 or more years later than it actually was.

That is so true Robert! Here was a guy who was born 2 years after the American Civil War and his designs from the 1930's are still fresh and significant even today, that's so cool!
