Expert answer:Building Comparison, art & design homework help

Answer & Explanation:Many of the buildings we have discussed in the last several lectures take their inspiration from, or refer directly to, earlier precedents. Late Baroque and Neoclassical buildings, for example, often refer to ancient Roman or Greek prototypes. Some recall Renaissance or Mannerist progenitors. This tendency is not unique to European buildings. We have seen that Chinese, Japanese, and Islamic buildings also refer back to earlier examples. For this assignment choose a building constructed sometime between 1600 and 1800 and compare it to one or more earlier buildings that influenced it’s designer.* :You can do this in one of two ways:1. Use one image depicting the building you have chosen and one image of its precedent. In an extended caption of 150 (minimum) to 200 (maximum) words, compare the two; this can point out similarities and/or difference between the buildings. Use your own words; do not quote directly from another source, and make sure your writing is grammatically correct. The title of the assignment must include the name of the building you have chosen, its date of completion or dates of construction, its location, and the name of its architect. Indicate the source of each image. Submit this as a single 8.5 x 11 pdf file no larger than 2 mbOption 2. Use three images depicting aspects of the building you have chosen, and pair each with an image of a precedent for the building (this can be 3 images of a single precedent building, or images of 2 or 3 different precedent buildings). For each pair of images write a caption of no more than 30 words explaining the comparison and its significance. Use your own words and grammatically correct, complete sentences. The title of the assignment must include the name of the building you have chosen, its date of completion or dates of construction, its location, and the name of its architect (if known). Indicate the source of each image. Submit this as a single 8.5 x 11 pdf file no larger than 2 mbBelow are two examples.assignment2_option1_example.pdfassignment2_option2_example.pdf

The Karlskirche in Vienna (left), designed by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach in the 1710s, refers to many different buildings;
however, its most obvious source of inspiration is the church of St. Agnes in Agone in Rome (right), designed primarily by Francesco
Borromini in the 1650s. A dome surmounting a very high drum is the most notable feature of both churches, although the drum
supporting Fischer von Erlach’s dome is slightly higher than that of Borromoni’s, and ornate dormers elaborate the more complex
dome of the Karlskirche. In both churches, flanking towers that appear to stand out from the main body of the façade compliment the
dome, and in each the inward curve of the adjacent bays strengthens this effect. The towers of the Karlskirche appear squat in
comparison to those of St. Agnes in Agone, but the two free standing historiated columns just inward of each tower offset this. The
central entrance to each church passes through a classical temple front. The six-columned front of the Karlskirche stands out
forcefully, forming a clearly distinct portico, whereas the four-columned front of St. Agnes integrates more subtly with the undulating
rhythm of its façade.

The dome and the temple front of Karlskirche (left) suggest a connection with St. Peter’s (right) and thus with the authority of the pope
in Rome.

The free-standing columns of Karlskirche (left) recall minarets flanking Hagia Sophia in Istanbul (right), which for von Erlach recalled
Constantine, who commissioned Hagia Sophia long before it became a mosque.

The historiated columns of Karlskirche (left) refer to Trajan’s Column (right) and, through this, connect the church to the authority of
imperial Rome.
