  Modern Architecture In England
Modern architecture covers the period included in the reigns of William IV (A.D. 1830-37), Victoria (A.D. 1837-1901), Edward VII (A.D. 1901-10), and of our present King, George V. The wonderful nineteenth century surpassed all its predecessors in the variety of its discoveries and in the extent of their application to the needs of daily life.
The architecture of this period, as might be expected, provides as fascinating a study as do any other developments of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, but is, moreover, so near to us in time as to make it difficult to form a detached judgment of its character.
In previous periods of architecture we have shown the varying and progressive results which arose under the operation of the geographical, geological, climatic, religious, social, and historical influences, but from the beginning of the nineteenth century the operation of these influences becomes modified.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin
Of his conversion he tells us that the study of ancient ecclesiastical architecture was the primary cause of the change in his sentiments, by inducing him to pursue a course of study, terminating in complete conversion.
The success of his career is to be sought not so much in the buildings he erected, which, being mostly for the Catholic body, were nearly always shorn of their chief splendour by the poverty of his patrons.
His unquestioned merit is the restoration of architecture in England and the revival of the forms of medieval England, which since his day have covered the land.

During the Mexican period (1821-35), relatively little architectural progress was made beyond the construction of dwellings and some military work, although several new towns were established, including Bastrop (laid out in 1830), Liberty (founded in 1831), and Gonzales (founded in 1832).
Architectural motifs from many historic styles were combined in an eclectic fashion, with the Medieval Romanesque and Gothic vying with the Renaissance for popularity.

Term coined in the 1880s to denote the last stage of the classical tradition in architecture, sculpture, painting and the decorative arts.
Almost paradoxically, the quest for a timeless mode of expression (the ‘true style’, as it was then called) involved strongly divergent approaches towards design that were strikingly focused on the Greco-Roman debate.
On the one hand, there was a commitment to a radical severity of expression, associated with the Platonic Ideal, as well as to such criteria as the functional and the primitive, which were particularly identified with early Greek art and architecture.

 New York Architecture Images- Pierre LeBrun
Napoleon Eugene Henry Charles Le Brun was born in Philadelphia, the son of Charles and Adelaide (Madelaine) Le Brun.
Le Brun's other major contribution to Philadelphia architecture was the Academy of Music (1855) on Broad Street; on this design he partnered with German-born Gustav Runge.
The partnership seems to have lasted throughout the project (c.1855-1857), but no other structures are known to have been designed them.

His writings and drawings furnished a mass of working material for the architects of the Gothic revival.
Among them is Specimens of Gothic Architecture (2 vol., 1821–23).
Although he erected numerous buildings, including churches, monasteries, and convents, his writings exerted greater influence than his architecture, and his works Contrasts (1836) and The True Principles of Pointed or Christian Architecture (1841) might be termed the textbooks of the Gothic revival.
