Much of 19th-century architecture looked to the past for inspiration--Greek temples, Gothic cathedrals, Egyptian mausoleums, Venetian chapels, India's palaces, and even Renaissance structures that were themselves infused with earlier styles. The most renowned of these buildings, their architects, and cities are profiled in spreads that feature interior and exterior photographs, drawings, and plans. Lively captions and text detail the individual stories behind some of the world's most exquisite buildings. Special attention is paid to the innovation of cast iron--a new material at the time that transformed the European landscape
