For this weeks class discussion locate at least two architectural works that were influenced by Greco-Roman architecture. These can be from any time period after the Greco-Roman period but should be from different periods themselves (e.g., one from Renaissance and one from Baroque). Then address the following: Trevi fountain, Itlay (renaissance architecture) Santiago De Compostela, Spain (Baroque architecture) • What is the function of each structure? • How does each work exhibit influence of the Greco-Roman period? Is the influence specifically Greek, Etruscan, or Roman – or a combination? • How would you compare the two selected works? Take the role of the evaluative critic.
