Magic of
America
A typescript of over 1,400 pages with approximately 650 accompanying illustrations, was written and compiled by Marion Mahony Griffin (1871-1961),
architect, designer, delineator, and artist. In 1911 she married Walter Burley Griffin (1876-1937), architect, landscape designer, and city planner. Their
architectural practice spanned almost four decades on three continents, and "The Magic of America" was meant, in part, to be a testament to their life and
work together.
"The Magic of America: Electronic Edition" collates in a digital format all the texts and illustrations from the three known copies of the work. The
electronic edition thus represents the most complete and accessible version currently available of this important architectural document.
Access note: Free access. Available to everyone. |
