Table
Frank Lloyd Wright American
The large library table that dominates one end of the room was originally made for the Littles’ Peoria house, but both ends of the table were extended when it was moved to Wayzata to bring it to its current length of almost 13 feet. It is a practical piece of furniture, constructed with multiple shelves for holding books of different sizes. As a vertical counterpoint to the low, spreading surface of the tabletop, a plaster reduction of the famous 2nd century B.C. "Winged Victory of Samothrace," a sculpture that Wright used in many of his Prairie School interiors, was placed on it.
