While Greek classical architecture provided a model for public and private building throughout 18th century Europe, its country of origin lay under Ottoman domination. After liberation in the 1820s, the new state required new government buildings, and the neoclassical style was a natural expression of nationhood. Illustrated with 520 modern and period photographs, prints and drawings, this ground- breaking survey examines the rich legacy of neoclassicism created in the shadow of its ancient progenitors.
