Excerpt from Art and Archaeology, Vol. 3: An Illustrated Monthly Magazine; January, 1916-June, 1916 Originality. The Italian Renaissance style is represented in the somewhat disappointing Tower of Jewels, in the aisles connecting the great courts, in the Charming towers on either side of the Court of Flowers and the Court of Palms, as well as in many ornamental details; while the Spanish Renaissance, more correctly known as the Plater esque, is conspicuous in some of the magnificent palace portals. Festival Hall and its neighbor, the Palace of Horticulture, are distinctly French in style and ornamentation, while the many State buildings and homes of Foreign Nations show us a multitude of architectural types. Thus we have a variety of elements, but all blended in a satisfying harmony, and so animated by genuine inspiration, and so infused with a noble idealism, that the result must be regarded, not only as an as thetic success, but also as a work of great originality.
