This delicate stylized design of waterlilies, common in the tranquil ponds of the Midwest, is adapted
from Frank Lloyd Wright's drawing "Waterlilies", which is thought to be designed for an art glass
screen in 1895 but never produced.
This early example epitomizes Wright's ability to incorporate themes from nature and exemplifies his
philosophy of "organic architecture" - the connecting of the natural world into his architecture as well
as his decorative designs.
Actual Tile Size: Approximately 5 7/8" x7 7/8". As each Motawi tile is crafted by hand,
dimensions may vary slightly by up to 1/16"
Tiles are 5/8" thick and have a notch at the back for hanging.
