Description

From the Neoclassicism of Thomas Jefferson design of Monticello and sketches of the White House, to allitaliana gardens and parks, and from the strong Roman classicism of the Jefferson Memorial, to Costantino Brumidis frescoes in Congress and the National Library, Americas capital is infused with the influences of a culture that laid the foundations of Western society. This book is a homage to this strong relationship and essential reading for all those interested in architecture and the visual arts.
