Origin of Neoclassical architecture and the architects involved in it.Lovely Singh
Neoclassical architecture began in the mid-18th century as a reaction against Rococo ornamentation and a return to classical Greek and Roman architectural forms. Key features included symmetry, columns, triangular pediments, and domes. It originated from excavations of Roman ruins in Italy, publications on antiquity, the arrival of the Elgin Marbles, and Johann Winckelmann's circle of artists in Rome imitating classical ideals. Examples included Robert Adam's English country houses, John Nash's master plan for Regent's Street in London, Andrea Palladio's influential buildings, and Greek Revival architecture in America inspired by ancient democracy. By the late 19th century, Neoclassicism had become highly academic and
Chapter 13: Neo-Classicism, Romanticism, and the RococoDouglas Vail
The chapter discusses architectural developments in the 18th century, including Rococo, Neo-Classicism, and Romanticism. It describes the Rococo style as highly decorative. Neo-Classicism emerged as architects returned to studying ancient Greek and Roman ruins scientifically. Romanticism rejected Neo-Classicism's rationality in favor of emotion. Specific architects and buildings from this era are also discussed, such as Robert Adam's use of classical motifs in innovative spatial designs at English country houses.
Neoclassical architecture is a style that began in the mid-18th century as a reaction against Rococo ornamentation. It is derived from classical Greco-Roman architecture and emphasizes symmetry, simple geometric forms, and the wall rather than chiaroscuro. There are three main types: temple style with columns, Palladian style based on Palladio's villas featuring balustrades, and classical block style using rectangular forms and repeated classical patterns. Famous architects who worked in the neoclassical style included Henri Labrouste, Charles Garnier, who designed the Paris Opera House, and Carrere & Hastings who built New York Public Library.
The document discusses the origins and key characteristics of Gothic art and architecture. It began in 12th century France as pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses allowed for taller buildings with more windows. Gothic cathedrals featured stained glass, sculpture, and were designed to glorify God through light and religious imagery. The style spread across Europe influencing painting, sculpture, and other architecture like castles through the 15th century before Renaissance ideals emerged.

This document provides an overview of Baroque and Rococo architecture and art from the late 16th to 18th centuries in Europe. Some key points covered include: the period saw religious/political conflicts, colonization, and scientific advances; Baroque used dramatic lighting/color, asymmetry, and illusionism; major architects included Maderno, Longhena, Le Vau, and Wren; geography included developments in Rome, France, Venice, and England; and Rococo featured luxurious interiors with exotic Chinese influences.
Baroque architecture originated in 17th century Italy and France as a style that glorified absolute rulers through elaborate, decorative designs featuring twisted columns, curves, ornate details, and optical illusions. It spread across Europe and was characterized by features like domes, abundant windows, and ceiling frescoes that created a sense of movement. Significant examples include St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, the Chateau de Versailles in France, and Jesuit churches in Hungary built to showcase this ornate architectural style.
The document provides an overview of French Renaissance architecture from the 15th to 18th centuries. It describes early transitional Gothic-Renaissance styles, the emergence of classical orders in the 16th century, and Rococo ornamentation in the 18th century. Key architectural works discussed include the Châteaux along the Loire River, demonstrating the evolution from fortified castles to country estates.

The document provides an overview of the history of architecture in Spain and Portugal from 1492 to 1830 AD. It describes four main periods:
1) The Early Period (1492-1556 AD) was characterized by the Plateresque style in Spain, which grafted Renaissance details onto Gothic forms and was influenced by Moorish art. In Portugal, the Manueline style developed during this time.
2) The Classical Period (1556-1690 AD) saw a closer adherence to Italian Renaissance styles.
3) The Baroque Period (1650-1750 AD) featured the extravagant Churrigueresque style in Spain, characterized by disregard for classical rules.
4) The Ant
Baroque architecture emerged in Italy in the late 16th century and spread across Europe and Latin America by the 17th century. It was initially used by the Catholic Church to assert dominance over Protestantism but later demonstrated absolute royal power through grand palaces. Two influential Baroque architects were Bernini and Borromini. Examples of outstanding Baroque architecture include churches like San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane in Rome and secular buildings like the Palace of Versailles. Rococo style originated in 18th century Paris as a lighter, more elegant and ornate alternative to Louis XIV's grand Baroque style at Versailles, using flowing, naturalistic designs. Walls, ceilings and moldings in the Rococo style were decorated with intricate curves and counter
This document provides an overview of medieval art in Europe between 450-1400 CE.

His designs attempted to recreate the style and proportions of ancient Roman buildings. In the 18th century, Palladianism became popular in England due to architects like Inigo Jones. Characteristics of English Palladian architecture included gracefulness, understated decoration, and use of classical columns and orders. Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington, was highly influential in popularizing Palladianism in England through his designs like Chiswick House near London.
The Renaissance architecture style originated in 15th century Italy and was inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture. It emphasized symmetry, proportion, geometry and classical orders. Early architects like Brunelleschi and Alberti helped establish Renaissance styles which emphasized order and classical details. During the High Renaissance, architects like Bramante and Raphael further developed classical concepts. Mannerism introduced more imaginative rhythms as the Renaissance ideal of harmony gave way. The Renaissance style then spread across Europe in the 16th century as other regions gained economic and political power.

1. ROMANESQUE STYLE
The term Romanesque architecture is sometimes used to cover
all immediate derivations of Roman architecture in the West, following
the collapse of Rome until the flowering of the Gothic style in about
1200.
It is characterized most obviously by a new massiveness of scale,
inspired by the greater economic and political stability that arrived after
centuries of turmoil.
2. CHARLEMAGNE I AND OTTO I
The Romanesque revival of medieval Christian art began with Charlemagne
I, King of the Franks, who was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in St.
Peter's Rome, by Pope Leo III in 800. Famous for his Carolingian art,
curiously, his major architectural achievement - the Palatine Chapel in
Aachen (c.800) - was not inspired by St Peter's or other churches in
Rome, but by the octagonal Byzantine-style Basilica of San Vitale in
Ravenna.
3. FEATURES OF ROMANESQUE
ARCHITECTURE
-the style employed thick walls, round arches, piers, columns
groin vaults, narrow slit-windows, large towers and decorative
arcading. The basic load of the building was carried not its arches or
columns but by its massive walls. And its roofs, vaults and buttresses
were relatively primitive in comparison with later styles. Interiors were
heavy with stone, had dim lighting and - compared with later Gothic
styles - simple unadorned lines.
4. GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE
Coined originally as a term of abuse by Italian Renaissance artists
and others like Christopher Wren, to describe the type of Medieval
architecture they considered barbaric, as if to suggest it was created by
Gothic tribes who had destroyed classical art of Antiquity, the Gothic
art style is characterized by the use of pointed arches, thinner walls,
ribbed vaults, flying buttresses, huge stained glass windows and
elaborate tracery.
The Gothic style as applied to cathedrals is usually divided into two
variations:
1.Rayonnant Gothic Architecture (c.1200-1350)
2.Flamboyant Gothic Architecture (1375-1500).
5. KEY FEATURE OF GOTHIC
ARCHITECTURE
The principal feature of the Gothic style is the pointed arch,
believed by many experts to originate in Assyrian, and later, Islamic
architecture.The new Gothic buildings had thin walls, often supported
by flying buttresses, and huge stained glass windows.
6. THE GOTHIC CATHEDRAL - A MINI-
UNIVERSE
In keeping with the new and more confident philosophy of the age,
the Gothic cathedral was seen by architects and churchmen as
representing the universe in miniature. Each element of the building's
design was intended to convey a theological message: the awesome
glory of God. Thus the logical and ordered nature of the structure
reflected the clarity and rationality of God's universe, while the
sculptures, stained glass windows and murals illustrated the moral
messages of the Bible.
7. RENAISSANCE-STYLE ARCHITECTURE
(1400-1620)
Renaissance architecture was catalyzed by the rediscovery of architectural
styles and theories of Ancient Rome.
Financed by commercial prosperity and competition between city-states, such
as Florence, Rome and Venice, as well as rich families like the Medici banking dynasty
in Florence and the Fuggers banking family in Germany, the Renaissance was
nevertheless a triumph of will over world events.
It was Brunellesci's magnificent 1418 design for the dome of the Florence
Cathedral (1420-36) - now regarded as the first example of Renaissance architecture
- which ushered in a new style based on the long-neglected placement and proportion
rules of Classical Antiquity.
8. FAMOUS RENAISSANCE ARCHITECTS
Leon Battista Alberti (1404-72)
-who is still revered as one of the founders of modern architectural theory.
(1) Donato Bramante (1444-1514), the leading designer of the High Renaissance;
(2) Guiliano da Sangallo (1443-1516), an important intermediary architect between the Early
and High Renaissance periods;
(3) Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564), a leading architect, as well as one of the greatest
sculptors and painters of the age;
(4) Baldassare Peruzzi (1481-1536), an important architect and interior designer;
(5) Raffaello Santi (Raphael) (1483-1520), a visionary designer as well as painter;
(6) Michele Sanmicheli (1484-1559), the most famous pupil of Bramante;
(7 & 8) Jacopo Sansovino (1486-1570) and Andrea Palladio (1508-1580), the two top figures in
Venetian Renaissance architecture;
(9) Giulio Romano (1499-1546), the main exponent of Italian Mannerist-style architecture;
(10) Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574) who designed the loggia for the Uffizi gallery and the connecting
Vasari Corridor; and
(11) Vincenzo Scamozzi (1548-1616) one of the great theorists of the late Renaissance.
9. FEATURES OF RENAISSANCE
ARCHITECTURE
Renaissance buildings were modelled on the classical architecture of the Greeks
and Romans, but retained modern features of Byzantine and Gothic invention, such as
complex domes and towers.
They also incorporated modern mosaics and stained glass, along with
outstanding fresco murals. Renaissance architecture can be seen in countless
examples of churches, cathedrals and municipal buildings across Europe.
10. SUPREME EXAMPLES OF RENAISSANCE
ARCHITECTURE
St Peter's Basilica in Rome Cathedral in Florence
11. BAROQUE ARCHITECTURE (1550-1790)
Baroque - a term derived from the Portugese word barocco, meaning 'an
irregular pearl'.
Key Features of the Baroque Style
Baroque architecture can be seen as a more complex, more detailed, more
elaborate, more ornamented form of Renaissance architecture. More
swirls, more complex manipulation of light, color, texture and
perspective. On the outside of its churches, it featured more
ostentatious facades, domes, columns, sculpture and other
embellishments. On the inside, its floor-plans were more varied. Long,
narrow naves were displaced by wider, sometimes circular shapes;
separate chapels and other areas were created, along with trompe l'oeil
effects; ceilings were covered in fresco paintings. The whole thing was
designed to interest, if not dazzle, the spectator.
13. CELEBRATED BAROQUE ARCHITECTS
• Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola (1507-73), papal architect to Pope Julius III and the
Farnese family;
• Gianlorenzo Bernini (1598-1680), a designer who perfectly expressed the ideals of the
Counter Reformation;
• Francesco Borromini (1599-1667), a lifelong rival of Bernini;
• Pietro Berrettini da Cortona (1596-1669), a protégé of Pope Urban VIII
• Francois Mansart (1598-1666), designer of French townhouses and chateaux like the
Château de Maisons, whose name was given to the mansard roof
• Jules Hardouin Mansart (1646-1708), designer of the great dome of Les Invalides in
Paris; and Louis Le Vau (1612-70),
• Sir John Vanbrugh (1664-1726), designer of Blenheim Palace; the leader of the
Baroque style
• Bartolomeo Rastrelli (1700-1771) was chiefly responsible for the style known as
Russian Baroque,
14. ROCOCO ARCHITECTURE (1715-89)
More decorative, playful style of architecture,
An amalgam of the words 'rocaille' (rock) and 'coquillage' (sells),
reflecting its abundance of flowing curved forms, Rococo was
championed by Nicolas Pineau, who partnered Jules Hardouin-Mansart
in designing interiors for the royal Château de Marly.
Rococo was really concerned with interior design. This was because it
emerged and remained centered in France, where rich patrons were
unwilling to rebuild houses and chateaux, preferring instead to remodel
their interiors.
15. NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE (1640-
1850)
In its early forms (1640-1750), it co-existed with Baroque, and functioned as a corrective style to the
latter's more flamboyant excesses.
Features of Neoclassicism Proper (1750-1850)
Neoclassical art was yet another return to the Classical Orders of Greek and Roman Antiquity.It was characterized by
monumental structures, supported or decorated by columns of Doric, Ionic or Corinthian pillars, and topped with
classical Renaissance domes. Neoclassical architecture originated in Paris
Jacques Germain Soufflot (1713-80), who designed the Pantheon (1756-97) in Paris;
Claude Nicolas Ledoux (1736-1806), designer of the Royal Saltworks at Arc-et-Senans (1773-93) and the Cathedral of
Saint-Germaine (1762-64);
Jean Chalgrin, who designed the Arc de Triomphe (1806).
In England the tradition was maintained by Paris-trained Sir William Chambers, Robert Adam (1728-92), John Nash
(1752-1835), Sir John Sloane (1753-1837), William Wilkins (1778-1839) and Sir Robert Smirke (1780-1867). It was
quickly adopted by progressive circles in Sweden as well.
In Germany, Neoclassical architects included: Carl Gotthard Langhans (1732-1808), designer of the Brandenburg Gate
(1789-91) in Berlin; Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841), responsible for the Konzerthaus on Gendarmenmarkt
(1818-21), the Tegel Palace (1821-4), and the Altes Museum (1823-30), all in Berlin. These two architects
transformed the Prussian capital of Berlin to rival Paris or Rome in classical splendor.

17. RUSSIAN NEOCLASSICISM
Charles Cameron (1745–1812), who built the Pavlovsk Palace (1782-86) near St
Petersburg, the Razumovsky Palace in the Ukraine (1802) and the Alexander Palace
outside St Petersburg (1812).
Important neoclassical architects for the Russian Czars included:
• Vincenzo Brenna (Cameron's pupil),
• Giacomo Quarenghi
• Matvey Fyodorovich Kazakov.
18. AMERICAN NEOCLASSICISM
The United States Capitol Building, with its neoclassical frontage and dome, is
one of America's most recognizable and iconic structures. Begun in 1793, its basic
design was the work of William Thornton (1759-1828), reworked by Benjamin Latrobe
(1764-1820), Stephen Hallet and Charles Bulfinch (1763-1844).
The dome and rotunda were initially built from wood, but later replaced with stone
and iron. The overall design was inspired by both the eastern facade of the Louvre
Museum in Paris, and by the Pantheon in Rome.
Frank Lloyd Wright -the greatest ever American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright
(1867-1959) revolutionized spatial concepts with his Prairie house style of domestic
architecture, introducing open-plan layouts and the widespread use of unfinished natural
materials.
19. AMERICAN SKYSCRAPERS
The Chicago School of architecture, founded by the skyscraper
architect and engineer William Le Baron Jenney (1832-1907), was the
pioneer group. Other important contributors to supertall tower design
included the ex-Bauhaus designers Walter Gropius (1883-1969) and
Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969); Philip Johnson (1906-2005), Skidmore
Owings and Merrill, their leading structural engineer Fazlur Khan (1929-
82), I.M.Pei (b.1917).
