Second Empire is an architectural style, most popular between 1865 and 1880, and so named for the architectural elements in vogue during the era of the Second French Empire. As the Second Empire style evolved from its 17th century Renaissance foundations, it acquired an eclectic mix of earlier European styles, most notably the Baroque often combined with mansard roofs and low, square based domes.〔Copplestone, p. 310.〕 The style quickly spread and evolved as Baroque Revival architecture throughout Europe and across the Atlantic. Its suitability for super-scaling allowed it to be widely used in the design of municipal and corporate buildings. In the USA, where one of the leading architects working in the style was Alfred B. Mullett, buildings in the style were often closer to their 17th-century roots than examples of the style found in Europe.〔Copplestone, p. 311.〕 ==In France== *Palais du Louvre (1852–57 additions), Paris; Louis Visconti and Hector Lefuel, architects. *Most buildings on the Champs-Élysées (1852–70), Paris. *Élysée Palace (1853–67 renovation), Paris; Joseph-Eugène Lacroix, architect. *Hôtel du Palais (1854), Biarritz. *Musée de Picardie (1855–67), Amiens. *Palais Garnier (1861-1875), Paris. *Phantom Manor (1992), Marne-la-Vallée. 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「Second Empire architecture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
