#5514. Georgian Brick Facade with White Belvedere: Harmony of Academic Architecture

The image showcases a magnificent building in Georgian architectural style, characteristic of academic institutions in the United States. The facade demonstrates classical proportions and symmetry typical of Colonial Revival from the early 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick with contrasting white elements, creating a traditional two-tone palette.

The central entrance is framed by a monumental portico with four white columns supporting the architrave. Above the entrance sits a semicircular pediment with decorative relief. Particularly noteworthy are the three circular windows on the second floor of the central facade section, featuring characteristic geometric stained glass patterns. The windows of the first and third floors have a rectangular shape and are framed with white casings.

The building is crowned by an elegant white cupola (belvedere) with a small spire, giving the entire composition a vertical accent and enhancing the solemnity of the architectural solution. The corner sections of the facade are decorated with white square pilasters, creating a visual framing and rhythm around the perimeter. In front of the building lies a well-maintained lawn with symmetrical pathways, emphasizing the formal character of the architecture.
