    I love Boullée’s architecture! I found that this YouTube video [1] goes into really interesting detail on some of Boullée’s designs.

    Wasn’t this commissioned by the Nazi party?

      No. Interesting conceptualist from the 1700s.

      Ledoux was similar.

      Mussolini commissioned Fascist architecture. Hitler’s architect was Albert Speers.

      It might well have been, I guess somebody might know the answer.

      From somebody who’s trying to improve their art skills, it is an incredible piece. I can’t even fathom getting to that level in my skill set. I don’t know how large it is, but it is really quite something.
