Renaissance Revival Architecture

Renaissance Revival Architecture refers to a style that reinterprets and draws inspiration from the architecture of the Renaissance period, particularly from the 15th to 17th centuries in Europe. Emerging in the 19th century, it emphasizes classical elements such as symmetry, grand columns, and detailed ornamentation. This style often features arched windows, pilasters, and elaborate facades, reflecting a sense of grandeur and elegance. It was popular for public buildings, museums, and universities, aiming to evoke a connection to the cultural achievements of the Renaissance while incorporating modern construction techniques of the time.
