Broadacre City Project (Model in four sections)

Frank Lloyd Wright · 1934–1935

You're looking at Broadacre City Project (Model in four sections) — a work by Wright, nineteen thirty-four to nineteen thirty-five. Painted wood, cardboard, and paper — about 0.2 by 3.9 meters. It is an odd shape for a picture: about 3.9 metres one way and 0.2 the other, so it reads as a band rather than a window.
