Neoclassical architecture ((フランス語:Architecture néoclassique)) appeared in Belgium during the period of Austrian occupation in the mid 18th century and enjoyed considerably longevity in the country, surviving through periods of French and Dutch occupation and the birth of Independent Belgium, surviving well into the 20th century. ==Origins of neoclassical architecture== Neoclassicism in architecture was the result of renewed interest in the architectural forms of Greco-Roman antiquity discovered in the excavation of sites such as Pompeii and Herculaneum in the 18th century. Its spread in Europe was driven by: * The writings of Johann Joachim Winckelmann who can be regarded as the founder of art history and archeology as modern disciplines; * The practice of "Grand Tour", a trip made by young men of the upper classes of European society which had the effect of bringing together northern European high society together with ancient art; * Visits to Italy by many young artists and architects. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neoclassical architecture in Belgium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
