Ironwork: Structure and Ornamentation
Discover the transformative impact of cast iron on architecture from the 19th to 20th centuries. We will explore the fabrication process and how this versatile material redefined architectural spaces.
Key examples include the iconic Crystal Palace in London and the stunning ironwork found in the great libraries of Paris, such as the Sainte-Genevi猫ve Library and the National Library of France. These masterpieces highlight the artistic and structural potential of ironwork in shaping modern architecture.
