A gorgeous color depiction of every remaining structure designed by Louis Sullivan

Louis Henry Sullivan (1856–1924) is a foundational figure in American architecture. Long considered the father of the skyscraper, he first came to wide attention in 1889 with the completion of the Auditorium Building in Chicago. Here, for the first time, every remaining structure designed by Louis Sullivan is captured in striking color by award-winning architectural photographer James Caulfield and is accompanied by highlights of his life and accomplishments, detailed by Patrick F. Cannon.

Sullivan became famous for his dictum “form ever follows function,” and his genius shines here in stunning photographs that establish his place among the greatest of the world’s architects.

Distributed for Glessner House.

After a long career in journalism, public relations, and publishing, Patrick F. Cannon has, in collaboration with photographer James Caulfield, published seven books, including Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medal winners The Space Within: Inside Great Chicago Buildings; At Home in Chicago: A Living History of Domestic Architecture; and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Unity Temple: A Good Time Place Reborn.
