Pilasters, on the \ outside, and vast halls with painted ceilings and / gigantick staircases within, usurping, solely for | the sake of a magnificent approach, what is ill / spared from the comfort and symmetry of the \ habitable apartments. Yet, at that period, se- L veral illustrious exceptions must be remarked ; and the noble patrons of architecture, the earls of Pembroke, Burlington, Leicester, and Orford, have rescued the fame of the English school from the general charge of poverty of des...ign, or abso- lute dependance upon foreign: models.
Of the variations in architecture, which have 44 OBSERVATIONS ON occurred during the present reign, and the de- parture from the regularity of the French and Palladian schools, I have already spoken, and at- tributed the cause to the discovery of Grecian and Roman architecture, which have been made familiar to us by splendid and accurate publi- cations.
To them we are indebted for the application of many classical ornaments, and a combina- tion of beautiful parts selected from the most celebrated antique structures ; the result of which seems to have been a middle style, be- tween the capricious lightness of an Italian villa, and the monotonous correctness of a French palace.
