5 Architecture

  • 1. Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art.
  • 2. French architecture always manages to combine the most magnificent underlying themes of architecture like Roman design it looks to the community.
