Frank Lloyd Wright was certainly proud of his first (self proclaimed) Prairie House in the William Winslow House (1893) in River Forest, Illinois.

He explained,

“The Winslow House has burst on the view of that provincial suburb like the Prima Vera in full bloom. It was a new world to Oak Park and River Forest. The House became an attraction, far and near. Incessantly it was courted and admired. Ridiculed too, of course…The first house soon began to shift the sheep from the goats.”
