Why did Jefferson believe the Classical Revival was a more appropriate style than Georgian for public buildings in the new United States

Respuesta :

Answer:

Thomas Jefferson popularized the Roman Classical Revival style because he wanted to make the comparison between the newborn United States and the influential Roman Empire of old.

While the Georgian style drew inspiration from Greco-Roman architecture, it did not attempt to recreate the ancient temples and coliseums explicitly, making the influence more evident in the smaller details rather than the overall look

I hope it is correct
