U.S. History II - Art & Architecture of the Reconstruction
HIST1002 - United States History II
University of Cincinnati
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.

ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task

the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were

Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it

inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page

round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a

that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.

“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire

style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular

artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For

and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps

I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.

the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the

elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and

factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
many styles and so many sub-styles of those styles. Italianate was normally characterized by
narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.

narrow and tall windows, flat roofs, and porches. Also, many of the styles of the windows were
the same or at least very similar. This style makes the houses look cozy and some even look
simple as well as intricate. If you look at Figure 2 on the VictorianItalianate Architecture it
shoes a house that demonstrates some, if not all, of the characteristics ofan Italianate style.
Another style is the Queen Anne style which is characterized by round towers, with domes
usually; stained glass windows, elaborate bannisters, and shingle siding that looked similar to
fish scales. A good example of a Queen Anne style is Figure 8 on the Queen Architecture page
inour week 2 online history lesson. It demonstrates stained glass windows, a tower (although
it is not round, but more of a rectangular prism,) fish scale shingles, and the beautiful and
elaborate banisters. Another great example would be Figure 6 that is on the same page. It has a
round tower, stained glass windows, and glamorous banisters along the porch. I cannot tell for
sure if the roof has fish scale shingles, but it definitely looks like it does.
The last architectural style is the Second Empire style, also known as Victorian style, the thing
that I noticed was that all of the houses and buildings shown were ginormous and had a strange
roof that was known as a mansard roof. The mansard roof was an “upper or attic story under
eaves which slope back from the walls, but with a flat roof on top.” That was in the page labeled
“Second Empire Architecture” in our history lesson. A few good examples of a Second Empire
style are Figure 9 and Figure 11. Figure 9 is quite large and a great example of this particular
style. Figure 11 has a large mansard roof along with a round window in the mansard roof. For
art, there was a sample of art that focused on the Hudson River, the upper part. There were
artists that would paint the Hudson River the way they saw it, romantic and mysterious. It keeps
“with the popularity of Gothic architecture and medieval European literature at the time,” says
The Hudson Valley School page for the history online lesson. All of the paintings are beautiful
and some are eerie, but I think that Figure 35 is mysterious and beautiful. It has rough and
choppy waves that are hitting up against the cliff. You can see that it looks stormy in some
parts, but it also looks like the sun is coming out at the top right hand corner of the painting.
I always thought that there was no way that art and architecture could be similar in any way
whatsoever because of how different they are. I soon realized that in a way they are both the
same thing, art is making something beautiful or with meaning and sometimes architecture is
the same way. If you think about it, architecture and sculpting are the same thing. The only
difference is the construction aspect of architecture. Art and architecture both reflect the society
that creates them; they both reflect “American” and English culture. Some are classy and
elegant as well as romantic and mysterious, just as the cultures of the countries are.
During the 1870’s the United States was still recovering from the Civil War, one of the biggest
traumas for the U.S but also the start of the second Industrial Revolution. Railroads, mines,
factories, etc. were being placed everywhere. Artists and architects were put to the task
ofmaking pieces that would make America extraordinary. For architecture, there were so
