Brunelleschi II

The architecture of Brunelleschi was really the type of Roman architecture inherited from Italy by the colonial American states. It was Roman suffused with later Italian styles. It shows how art can literally leap across hundreds of years of history having been seemingly lost until rediscovered by creative minds of later generations. Monticello is an example of Brunelleschi's type of architecture.
