THE CLASSICAL LEGACY IN 19TH AND 20TH
CENTURY AMERICA
Papers wanted dealing with the revival and/or reuse of motifs from ancient
Greek and Roman art and architecture. The theme for these papers should
emphasize the late 19th and 20th centuries rather than Colonial or Federalist
periods. While the revival of classical styles is foremost, papers dealing
with the manifestation of a revival of Egyptian or ancient Near Eastern motifs
would also be considered.
Likely topics include but are not limited to:
Public buildings such as banks, libraries, state capitols
Railroad stations
Hotels in Las Vegas (Nevada)
J. P. Getty Museum
Cemeteries and tombstone decorations
Papers treating any aspect of the topic are welcome
