The Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial
Lawrence Halprin · 1997
על הספר
The Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, written by Lawrence Halprin, the world-renowned architect who designed the structure, is the only book to tell the Memorial's remarkable story. The book also recounts the illustrious history of FDR himself, the only president to be elected for four terms, the man who led this country through the Great Depression and World War II, and established the United States as a preeminent world power. The book reproduces the Memorial's powerful sculptures by Leonard Baskin, Neil Estern, Robert Graham, George Segal, and Tom Hardy, as well as archival photographs, original drawings, sketches, landscape plans, and photographs of the monument.
המשפט הראשון: The stone in this first-term room has a simple split-face finish and is similar in feel to the New England fieldstone used at FDR's homes in Hyde Park, New York.
