Excerpt from Six Lectures on Architecture

Manifestly this is impossible within the scope of two lectures. It is the labor of years (if it is not the illumination of a moment) and not now for us. All we can do is to note the most salient points and block out the main lines of what I hope for many may be subsequently a study as revealing as it is absorbing.

Excerpt from Six Lectures on Architecture

The lectures presented in this volume comprise the eleventh series delivered at the Art Institute of Chicago on the Scammon foundation. The Scammon Lectureship is established on an ample basis by the bequest of Mrs. Maria Sheldon Scammon, who died in 1901. The will prescribes that these lectures shall be upon the history, theory, and practice of the fine arts (meaning thereby the graphic and plastic arts), by persons of distinction or authority on the subject on which they lecture, such lectures to be primarily for the benefit of the students of the Art Institute, and secondarily for members and other persons. The lectures are known as "The Scammon Lectures."
