École des Beaux Arts

Isaac Kremer/ September 16, 2018/ / 0 comments

In French, a school during the last quarter of the 19th century. American neoclassicism embraced the architecture of Rome and the Renaissance together with that of Greece.  How to adapt and combine elements of this broad classical heritage to meet present demands was the aim of a new class of professional architects. The Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris epitomized this methodology.  Many Americans trained in Paris. (Kremer, 2023)
