Reviving Classicism

Modernist Architecture answers to a cloistered elite—it’s time for a change.

The Confederate Monument in Hollywood Cemetery, Richmond, VA, 1869, was designed by Charles H. Dimmock, who was not an architect but a civil engineer and a captain in the Confederate Army. The monument is 90 ft. tall – miniscule compared to the 480-ft.-tall Great Pyramid of Cheops in Egypt. Photo: Calder Loth
