專家說明

Rockledge, the summer home of Ernest L. King in Homer, Minnesota, was George Washington Maher's most famous architectural commission. Maher designed not just the home, but all of its interior furnishings which allowed him to fully explore his motif-rhythm theory. At Rockledge, Maher used decorative elements derived from the surrounding landscape--the horizontal lines of the prairie, the arches of the hills and the tiger lilies of summer. This leaded glass floor lamp successfully incorporates these motifs to create a stunning example of Maher's work.
