Example Question #1001 : Ap Art History
The drawing is a plan for a __________.
Possible Answers:
palace
monastery
cathedral
armory
Correct answer:
palace
Explanation:
This drawing is a plan for the expansion of the Palace of Whitehall made in the early seventeenth century by Inigo Jones. The impressive scale and formal symmetry both give a sense of grandeur, while the many rooms and areas suggest a practical purpose and utility for many of the spaces in the building. This combination is only truly present in a royal palace that needs to both indicate the power of the monarch and the functioning of the government.
