Warren Symposium opens with a discussion on the \"roots of home\" by architect and historian Russell Versaci. The essay journeys across the American South, examining the wide range of architectural styles that developed there during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBuilding on Versaci's introduction of the Germanic tradition behind the Texas rock house style, Kenneth Hafertepe delves into a study of these mid-nineteenth-century houses that were built by German immigrants to central Texas--examining how the living spaces were arranged, and what materials and methods were used in their construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThree art historical essays by Sam Ratcliffe, Maurie D. McInnis, and Michael R. Grauer follow, demonstrating the equally broad range of influences and traditions identified in art produced in Texas, the South, and the Southwest prior to 1900.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bayou Bend Collection\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0890901732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780890901731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Museum of Fine Arts (Houston)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 155\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.65h x 5.65w x 0.56d","brand":"Bayou Bend Collection","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47637157937407,"sku":"9780890901731","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2e36d210-ecb1-4c18-b4f2-6fd6703e4b81.jpg?v=1765114299","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/american-material-culture-and-the-bayou-bend-collection-9780890901731","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
