Today the Columbarium rotunda continues to reflect the builder's interest in a cheerful celebration of life.

	[Project Rastko] THE HISTORY OF SERBIAN CULTURE - Ivica Mladjenovic: Modern Serbian architecture
		The architecture of the Patriarch's Palace (1892) belongs to the neo-Renaissance, although the author found his inspiration on the boundaries of the Renaissance, and among the Romantic and Byzantine symbols.

	Kimball, Architecture in the History of the Colonies and of the Republic
		Already it is becoming evident, however, that, down at least to 1830, the arts, especially architecture, occupied a place of much importance in American life, and that the relationship of American architecture to that of England and of Europe was by no means always backward and imitative.
		Thus while minor craftsmen for a time continued traditions essentially colonial and English, the leaders sought to establish an architecture which should not be borrowed from contemporary European styles, but should be founded on the authority of the ancients, in whose republics the new states were felt to have their closest analogy.
		Thus it is not the colonial style, but the classic architecture of the republic, in its two incarnations, old and new, which is a true contribution of America to universal development, a contribution well deserving to be recognized, even by the general historian.

	ARCHITECTURE
		The first origins of Art Nouveau architecture in Catalonia are in the new Escola Provincial d'Arquitectura (Provincial Architecture school), created in Barcelona in 1871 and leaded by the architect Elies Rogent i Amat (1821-1897).
		Before the foundation of that school, the tendencies to the Art Nouveau had been present in the works of architects as Josep Domènech i Estapà who, instead of his eclectic orientation and his explicit refuse of Art Nouveau, he mustn't avoid the influences of that style with shapes remembering the Austrian Sezessionstyl.
		The development of Art Nouveau in Catalan architecture was enormous and is today present all around Catalonia.

	THE THOMAS JEFFERSON BUILDING - On These Walls: Inscriptions and Quotations in the Buildings of the Library of Congress ...
		When its doors were opened to the public on November 1, 1897, the new Library of Congress building was an unparalleled national achievement; its 23-carat gold-plated dome capped the "largest, costliest, and safest" library building in the world.
		The building's elaborate decoration, which combines sculpture, mural painting, and architecture on a scale unsurpassed in any American public building, was possible only because General Casey and Bernard Green lived up to their reputations as efficient construction engineers, completing the building for a sum substantially less than that appropriated by Congress.
		The Jefferson Building opened in 1897, eleven years after its construction was authorized, and 26 years after Librarian Spofford called for a separate Library building.
