  • Economic dominance brings cultural dominance and the architecture of Empire was, in part, a template for the world. But as the century turned there were already signs of big changes which were to go on to shape the England we now live in.

    Im only a layman but I have a love of architecture, particularly the Georgian, Edwardian and Victorian periods. Thanks Gresham for making these incredible lectures available free.
    As I say, Im not a student, nor an expert, but to have resources available online is a wonderful gift.

    Couldn't they film maker put a little more light on those old photos. Why can't they adjust the lighting on them in photoshop? There is no need to film them as they are. At least adjust the light. Some of them are so dark you cannot see the building.
