Summary

A new analysis of Louis Kahn's 1929 sketches from the Amalfi Coast reveals previously unidentified locations and provides more precise details for ten drawings. The study sheds light on Kahn's artistic intent, graphic style, and influences, including techniques popularized in 1920s America, while also examining the potential impact of these travel drawings on his later architectural projects. This research builds upon earlier work by Jan Hochstim (1991) and an exhibition in Chicago and New York (1996), offering a deeper understanding of Kahn's early engagement with Italian landscapes.
