The transitional period between the Art Nouveau style and Art Deco.

You get the elaborately ornate ornamentation, but without the loathsomely organic forms of true Art Nouveau. Almost a revisiting of the older Baroque style, but with more tolerance for plain surfaces in places and no gaudy gilding.

People like to shit on Romanesque, but I enjoy it.

Whichever style the Palais du Louvre it tied to...

Truly a shame that Mitterand deemed it fit to tarnish with that ugly pyramid. He was the true socialist incarnate: Muslim-lover, destroyer of economies, and butthurt against french culture.

Truly I hate socialists in my country. Napoleon IV and liberalism when?

The pyramid looks great you autist, and the Louvre needed an entrance to accommodate all its visitors.

It's called French Classical or French Baroque btw, same style as this: >>1277389

I've always liked the faux Roman architecture built during the Third Reich, even without the /pol/ memes. It's a shame Welthauptstadt Germania was never built, it would have been truly something to see the Grosse Halle.

I'm a big fan of idealized renderings of pre-Christian Slavic architecture and civilization; one can imagine nothing ever really looked this way outside the realm of the imaginations of pan-Slavic fantasists but it's cool to imagine the depths of Eastern Europe as some kind of lost world
