	2nd millennium BC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pharaohs of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt and their contemporary Kings of Babylon, of Amorite origin, brought good governance without too much tyranny, favoured elegant art and architecture without overblown exaggeration, painstakingly achieved a good general balance that lasted only a short while.
		Farther east, the Indus Valley civilization was in a period of decline, possibly as a result of intense, ruinous flooding.
		These actually became very colorful times, with new emphasis on grandiose architecture, new clothing fashions, vivid diplomatic correspondence on clay tablets, renewed economic exchanges, and the New Kingdom of Egypt playing the role of the main superpower.

		Monastic copyists preserved it during the Middle Ages; it was rediscovered in about 1414 in the library of the monastery of St. Gall by Poggio Bracciolini, a humanist.
		The first printed version appeared in the 1480s, and the work gradually became enormously influential among Renaissance architects and antiquarians, with as many as 166 editions published thereafter, according to a survey done in 1978 by Luigi Vagnetti.
		Le Corbusier, a provocative and monumental figure in the history of modern architecture, played a seminal role in the formation of this journal and contributed many of his drawings for its illustrations.

	William C (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Like many other architectural critics of the nineteenth century, Hugo admits the possibility of a new age, of a revival in modern architecture, even as he decries its contemporary decline and advocates the preservation of the remaining, indigenous artifacts of an earlier era.
		Thus as we approach the theme of historicism in nineteenth-century architecture, we are confronted with a paradox: on the one hand, historicist architectural styles are expected to represent and embody a national image that ipso facto is situated in a pre-Enlightenment, medieval era—whether in France, England, Germany, or Russia.

	Francesco di Giorgio Martini (Getty Museum)
		Mournful eyes, a halting linear flow in drapery and hair, delicately awkward posing of necks and hands, and classically inspired architecture characterize his style.
		More sophisticated than his paintings, Francesco's sculpture shows acquaintance with earlier Florentine masters such as Donatello and Lorenzo Ghiberti, along with his contemporary Antonio del Pollaiuolo.
		By the 1480s Francesco was among Italy's leading architects.

	Bellini, Giovanni
		The process is well advanced in two dated pictures of the 1480s: Madonna of the Trees (1487, Accademia, Venice) and Madonna with Saints (1488, Church of the Frari, Venice).
		In these, figures, space, light, architecture, and sometimes landscape were balanced with seemingly effortless perfection to achieve a complex but harmonious image of serene grandeur.
		Such paintings as, for example, Madonna with Doge Agostino Barbarigo (1488, Santa Pietro Martire, Murano), are pioneer exemplars of the High Renaissance style.

		His activities as a diplomat led to his employment at the courts of Naples, Milan and Urbino, as well as in Siena, and while most of his paintings and miniatures date from before 1475, by the 1480s and 1490s he was among the leading architects in Italy.
		His subsequent palace and church architecture was influential in spreading the Urbino style, which he renewed with reference to the architecture of Leon Battista Alberti but giving emphasis to the purism of smooth surfaces.
		His theoretical works, which include the first important Western writings on military engineering, were not published until modern times but were keenly studied in manuscript, by Leonardo da Vinci among others; they foreshadowed a number of developments that came to fruition in the 16th century (see BALDASSARE PERUZZI and SEBASTIANO SERLIO).

		Unlike Pietro and his brother Tullio, he practised sculpture exclusively, and he worked in bronze as well as marble.
		He was trained in his father’s workshop, but his specific role is difficult to discern before the funerary monument to Bishop Zanetti in Treviso Cathedral in the late 1480s.
		He has been convincingly credited with the carving of the extremely realistic portrait of the deceased bishop and with the eagle and some of the decorative carving on the sarcophagus (Munman, 1977).
