She stands ready to help him.
- See the group from the sea-wall directly in front of the Column ofProgress for the splendid purpose expressed in the figure and on theface of the "Adventurous Bowman. " Many San Franciscans would like to have this wonderful group duplicatedin bronze to remain permanently with the city of the Exposition of 1915.
The Court of the Agesand not The Court of Abundance Architect - Louis Christian Mullgardt of San Francisco.
Architecture - If one could call this beautifu...l architecture by name onemight say Spanish Gothic, on account of the round-arched Gothic and alsothe Spanish finials used, but it is so thoroughly original that this ishardly the term to use. It is Romanesque in its vaulting of thecorridor, and at first glance in its great square tower, and arches, andyet not Romanesque architecture.
It is suggestive of the last period of English Gothic in its richparallelism of vertical line - and yet is not that.
It is suggestive of the flamboyant decoration of the French architecturesuch as one sees and feels at Rouen Cathedral - and yet, not that, foron looking closer one sees not wavy line suggesting flame, but the waveof the kelp of the sea - and then one realizes that the vertical linesrepresent falling water.
