WHAT I NEED TO KNOW

BEGIN

Architecture is both the process and the product of planning, designing, and
constructing buildings or other structures. Architectural works, in the material form of
buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art.

Throughout ancient and medieval history, most

of the architectural design and construction was carried
out by – such as stone masons and carpenters, rising
to the role of master builder.

An architect is a person who plans, designs and

oversees the construction of buildings. Do you want to
know the representative artists (architect) from
Western classical art traditions? Read on and perform
the activities prepared for you in this module.

YOUR At the end of the module, you should be able to:

WHAT IS IT

KEEP THIS IN MIND

PRE-HISTORIC ARCHITECTURES
Man has developed a form of architecture based on megaliths (a big rock) from the
Greek word lithos (stone) and megas (big). This architecture is made of huge stone
blocks which were probably intended for burial.

Megalithic monuments have always ignited man’s imagination. It provided plenty of

legends and superstition. During this era, stones and rocks were associated with
divinity. Structures were made of large stones by Ancient cultures. It was considered
as manmade Archaeological wonders.
Sample Artwork:
Stonehenge
3, 000 B.C. – 2, 000 B.C.

➢ Best preserved megalithic site in Europe, a group

of stones arranged in concentric circles, with
large external circle of triliths (Greek word
meaning “three stones”), two internal circles built
in a similar manner and altar shaped stone in the
center.
➢ It is a temple where rituals were held.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonehenge

Famous Artists:

❖ Structures were made of large stones by Ancient people.

❖ Their structures considered as manmade Archaeological wonders.

EGYPTIAN ARCHITECTURES

Most ancient Egyptian buildings were built of mud brick and limestone readily available
materials by levied workers.
The best known example of ancient Egyptian architecture are the Egyptian pyramids;
yet, excavated temples, palaces, tombs and fortresses have all been studied by
architects.

Likewise, ancient Egyptian architecture is not one style, but a set of styles with
commonalities used during each period of ancient Egyptian history.This architectural
style was developed during the pre – dynasty period 4, 000 B.C.

Sample Artwork:

Pyramids of Giza
4 Dynasty, 2580 – 2560 BC
th

➢ The Pyramids of Giza were the funerary structures

of the three kings namely: Khufu; Khafa; and
Menkaura.
➢ These structures have more than 5 million blocks
of limestone.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pyramid_of_Giza
Famous Artists:

❖ Hemiunu
– He is a man who lived in Ancient Egypt who is believed to be the architect
of the Pyramids of Giza.
❖ Imhotep
– He was the probable architect of the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the first
Mastaba to be made of stone.
Be made of stone.

ARCHITECTURES

Greek architecture is known for tall columns, intricate detail, symmetry, harmony, and
balance. The main examples of Greek architecture that survive today are the large
temples that they built to their gods.These buildings were designed in one of three
architectural style or orders: Doric; Ionic; and Corinthian.

Architects used optical tricks to present buildings as perfectly straight, and an example
par excellence is undoubtedly the Parthenon of Athens.

Sample Artwork:

The Parthenon
447-432 BC, Athens

➢ Parthenon is the greatest classical temple

ingeniously engineered to correct optical
illusion.
➢ Its massive foundations were made of
limestone, and the columns were made of
Pentelic marble, a material that was utilized
for the first time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon
Famous Artists:

❖ Ictinus and Callicrates

– They were the two architects who constructed the Parthenon of the
Acropolis of Athens.
– Both were Athenians and were active during the 5th century BC.
ROMAN ARCHITECTURES

Roman architecture flourished in the Roman Republic and even more so under the
Empire, when the great majority of surviving buildings were constructed.

The Emperors erected huge halls and arenas for public games, baths and
procession.They built sturdy stone structures to perpetuate their glory.

It used new materials, particularly concrete, and newer technologies such as

the arch and the dome to make buildings that were typically strong and well-
engineered.

Sample Artwork:
The Colosseum
AD 70-82, Rome

➢ The Colosseum is an amphitheatre in the

centre of the city of Rome, Italy.
➢ Thehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colosseum
Colosseum was a place where
gladiator fights and executions took place
in Ancient
Famous Artists:Rome.
➢ It was built of travertine limestone, tuff, and
bricked-faced concrete.

❖ Vespasian and Titus

– They were both a member of the Flavian Dynasty.
– Vespasian ruled the Roman from 69-79, and was succeeded by his
son Titus who ruled the nation from 79-81.
– The construction of the Colosseum was funded by them as a gift to
the Roman people.

BYZANTINE ARCHITECTURES

Byzantine architecture is the architecture of the Eastern Roman Empire, and

dramatically influenced the later medieval architecture throughout Europe and the
Near East.

It has a lot in common with the early Christian architecture. In addition to extensive
use of interior mosaics, its defining characteristic is a heightened dome which created
a new style in global architecture.
Sample Artwork:
Hagia Sophia
537 BC, Istanbul

➢ Hagia Sophia means “Holy Wisdom”.

➢ It is the former Orthodox Cathedral, later
an Imperial Mosque and now a museum.
➢ Byzantium employed stone (including
marble), brick (of mud or clay), mortar (of
varying qualities), and timber as its main
building materials.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagia_Sophia

Famous Artists:

❖ Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles

– They were the two main Byzantine Greek architects.
– They were known for having built the monumental church of Hagia
Sophia in Constantinople (now Istanbul).
– They were also highly skilled in mechanics and mathematics.

ROMANESQUE ARCHITECTURES

Romanesque architecture is an architectural style of medieval Europe characterized

by semi-circular arches which are traditionally referred to as Norman architecture.

Romanesque architecture is known by its massive quality, thick walls, round arches,
sturdy pillars, barrel vaults, large towers and decorative arcading.
Sample Artwork:

The Groin-Vaulted Crypt of Worcester Cathedral

1130 CE

➢ The 12th century Norman Crypt at Worcester

Cathedral is an early Norman work wherein it
topped with simple capitals and supporting a groin-
vaulted ceiling.
➢ It shows many Roman arches through the hallway.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worcester_Cathedral

Famous Artists:

❖ George Gilbert Scott

– He was a prolific English Romanesque and Gothic revival architect.
– He was also chiefly associated with the design, building and renovation
of churches and cathedrals.
– He extremely restored the Norman Crypt Worcester Cathedral with W.
A. Perkins from1857 to 1874.

GOTHIC ARCHITECTURES

Gothic architecture is originated in 12th century northern France and England as a

development of Norman architecturethat values height and exhibits an intricate and
delicate aesthetic.

Though its roots are French, the Gothic approach can be found in churches,
cathedrals, and other similar buildings in Europe and beyond.

Sample Artwork:
Cathedral of Chartres
1163 - 1345

➢ It is also known as the Notre Dame Cathedral.

➢ The iconic building has rich architecture and
design, splendid stained glass windows, and
thousands of sculptural figures.
➢ Though most of what we see from outside Notre
Dame is stone and glass, much of the inside is
buttressed by timber.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notre-Dame_de_Paris
Famous Artists:

❖ Jean de Chelles and Pierre de Montreuil

– Jean de Chelles was one of the architects at the Cathedral of Notre
Dame de Paris, and was credited with the south end of the transept
of the Cathedral, the portal of the cloister, and its rose window.
– On his death in 1265 he was succeeded by Master Pierre de
Montreuil, a French architect and was a great exponent of the
Rayonnant Gothic style of architecture.
