Description:Excerpt from History of Architecture: From the Earliest Times, Its Present Condition in Europe and the United States; With a Biography of Eminent Architects, and a Glossary of Architectural Terms The perception of the beautiful, is among the noblest of God's gifts to man. When improved by culture, it diffuses over the poor wants of human nature a glory, like sunlight upon the dark and frozen earth. The peasant of the genial South, trains the jessamine over his rude porch, and beneath it, after the weary labour of the day, enjoys the stilly eve. The Swiss mountaineer hangs his picturesque chalet amid the embowering trees of his native Alps, and its beauty delights the passing traveller. With the same earnest longing for the beautiful, the man of wealth calls in the aid of Art, to decorate his more lofty dwelling-place. But not alone the home of man must minister to his love of the beautiful; the Temple, which he consecrates to the worship of his Creator, must rear its stately columns and spread its overarching vault, to form a fit sanctuary for holy thoughts and heavenward aspirations.
