Wk12_English Renaissance 3

The Architecture made in the English Renaissance was very good. Some of the best places and buldings were created. In this time queen Elizabeth got many foreign architects to go build many buildings in this time of period. Sir Christopher Wren, creator of St. Paul's cathedral in London, made the building which gave what to talk about in the English Renaissance period. There was many buildings small or big but they were all very significant to the english people because were made during the english renaissance period. Practically the buildings made during this time period were to reconstruct the classical rome that exsisted in that time. Not only buildings were created but also statues and many other great works of art. Filippo Brunelleschi, Leon Battista Alberti, and Andrea Palladio this were three important key figures of The English Renaissance period. They were great artist. They made great art of works and i mean great buidlings which revived the classical rome. Brunelleschi is considered the first Renaissance architect. This three important figures were very important. They made a great difference in the English Renaissance with out them the buildings wouldn't of been made and we wouldn't of known about all this nice architectures that were made and that know  we admire and think are so pretty and unique.http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/itar/hd_itar.htm

  1. hey! :)
    wow i learned alot about buildings. Now i understand were many of the bulidings from today get their inspiratio from. They had really pretty buildings back in this era, you do not really see much of that type or architect style in riverside, or even in most of california. We should go back to contrsuting uildigs like the renaisiance people did beacuse their buildings have lasted over hundreds and even thousands of years.
