Two of my favourite things come together with this picture, one of the most notable photographers of architecture that ever lived and one of the most famous architects of all time, also one of my personal favourites, Frank Llloyd Wright, who designed this Californian government building.

Ezra Stoller was born in Chicago in 1915, grew up in New York and studied architecture at NYU. As a student, he began photographing buildings, models and sculpture; in 1938, he graduated with a BFA in Industrial Design. He was drafted in 1942 and was a photographer at the Army Signal Corps Photo Center. After World War II, Stoller continued his career as an architectural photographer and also focused on industrial and scientific commissions. Over the next forty years, he became best known for images of buildings. He was at the forefront of bringing architecture photography into the art realm, using impressive lighting conditions and playing with forms and shapes like no other.
