In the Cause of Architecture: Throughout its 113-year history, Architectural Record has invited leading practitioners of the arts to submit their thoughts on the state of architecture. In the Cause of Architecture revives these documents, which are important not just as celebrity essays, but as time capsules of the development of architecture in the late 19th and the 20th Centuries. One series of articles, "Polychromy in Architecture", was written by Leon Solon, the artistic director of the American Encaustic Tiling Company, in 1922.
