Frank Lloyd Wright Imperial Hotel Peacock Rug Art Glass Panel
From 1913 – 1922, Wright designed and built the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, Japan. For Decades this landmark served as an architectural icon for the city, during which time it survived serveral devastating earthquakes, until it was demolished in 1968. Fortunately the main entrance and hotel lobby were preserved and reconstructed in 1923 at the Museum Meiji-mura, an open-air architectural museum and theme park near Nagoya in Aichi prefecture, Japan. The details of this art glass panel are based on a peacock motif rug designed by Wright for the Luxuy hotel. The peacock theme was recurring, also to be found as a mural in " Peacock Alley", the lavish main lobby where the affluent would socialize. The detail in this panel is similar to many geometric Oya (soft volcanic rock) carvings he designed throught the hotel.
Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest architects of the 20th century. His work heralded a new thinking in architecture, using innovation in design and engineering made possible by newly developed technology and materials. His creative ability extended far beyond the borders of architecture and into graphic design, furniture, art glass, linens, and decorative products for the home.
Wright designed well over 4,000 leaded glass windows and doors for more than 150 of his buildings. He often referred to them as “light screens,†a term that evokes Japanese shoji screens, where they were arranged in bands like his windows. Wright created leaded glass designs for doors, skylights, back-lit ceiling panels, table lamps and wall sconces as well as for windows.
