Erecteión
Su construcción se inició en el año 421 a. C., durante la tregua de la Paz de Nicias en la guerra del Peloponeso, reemplazando el antiguo templo arcaico de Atenea que había sido destruido por los persas durante las Guerras Médicas.
Está formado por un edificio central con planta irregular, adecuado al desnivel del terreno, que comprende dos partes sin comunicación entre ellas: al este es un santuario dedicado a Atenea de tipo hexástilo, con unas columnas de orden jónico; al oeste está formado por dos capillas con doble culto: una a Erecteo y Poseidón y la otra a Hefesto y Butes.24 En el acceso a estas salas se encontraba la fuente de agua salada que supuestamente Poseidón hizo brotar con un golpe de su tridente durante la disputa con Atenea. Tiene una stoa en la parte norte, con columnas y en la parte sur es donde se encuentra la Tribuna de las Cariátides, con seis columnas con figura de mujer de 230 cm de altura, realizadas por Calímaco, un ayudante de Fidias. Las que se pueden ver in situ son copias de las cinco que se encuentran en el Museo de la Acrópolis y de una sexta que hay en el Museo Británico.25
El Erecteión mostraba un friso que recorría los lados del edificio, formado por figuras de mármol montadas sobre lápidas de piedra calcárea negra de la ciudad de Eleusis. Se ha conservado una lápida de la segunda etapa de su construcción, donde se pueden leer los 130 nombres de los trabajadores y su paga, una dracma diario, que era la misma que la que recibía el arquitecto.26
Pareidolia is the fourth installment in Jared’s Micro-City series. Named for the psychological phenomenon that causes us to perceive patterns in natural objects, Pareidolia shows a city made of clouds as sharp as it will ever be, before scattering in the wind. The entire model is made only using LEGO® parts that come in white, making achieving certain shapes in the piece extremely challenging. This model is a parallel piece to the second installment in my Micro-City series, Spill Life. These pieces utilize stark color choices to invoke emotion and capture the fleeting beauty we miss in our busy, everyday lives.

Pavlovsk Park near St. Petersburg, Russia was conceived by Cameron as a classic English landscape garden, an idealized landscape filled with picturesque pieces of classical architecture, designed to surprise and please the viewer. Like the English landscape garden, it took much of its inspiration from the romanticized landscape paintings of Claude Lorraine and Hubert Robert.
The front part of the building was designed by Sidney R. J. Smith with a classical portico and dome behind. Construction, undertaken by Higgs and Hill, commenced in 1893. The gallery opened on 21 July 1897 as the National Gallery of British Art, but became commonly known as the Tate Gallery, after its founder Sir Henry Tate.
What I find with Fotor is that it predominantly responds to keywords in your supplied description, more than the full meaning of a sentence. This was the only suggestion that it came up with where the building was in fact seen at the end of an avenue of cypresses.
#Temple of #Hephaistos in central Athens, Greece, is the best-preserved ancient #Greektemple in the world, but is far less well-known than its illustrious neighbour, the Parthenon.
It was dedicated to Hephaestus, the god of smiths and metal-workers.

The historical church in Sài Gòn. It has a distinctive colonial façade and gotta love this pastel yellow of the painted color.
