A Short History of Architecture #266622

"To build, to build!<br>That is the noblest art of all the arts.<br>Painting and Sculpture are but images,<br>Are merely shadows cast by outward things<br>On stone or canvas, having in themselves<br>No separate existence. Architecture,<br>Existing in itself, and not in seeming<br>A something-it is not, surpasses them<br>As substance shadow."<br><br>- Longfellow, in Michael Angelo.
