Walter Gropius was born on May 18th, 1883 in Berlin, Germany, and is "widely regarded as one of the pioneering masters of modern architecture" (Wikipedia). Gropius was the founder of the Bauhaus School, a school of architecture, in 1919. The school was in operation from 1919 to 1933, when it was closed under pressure from the NSDAP (Nazi) regime.
