Philip Trammell Shutze, one Atlanta’s foremost twentieth-century architects, followed the Classical tradition in art and architecture from his hometown in Georgia to Rome, Italy—and stops in between. Shutze demonstrated that interest in the hundreds of residential and commercial works he designed throughout the Southeast and in the furniture, porcelain, pottery, art, and decorations he chose for his personal collection. The Story of a Collection provides an unparalleled look at the pieces Shutze purchased for himself, which he displayed, enjoyed, and delighted in sharing with his friends.
