The effects of Baroque, Classicizing and Jugendstil tendencies figure in here; so do Albrecht Durer, who designed one of the first modular (noncalligraphic) blackletter alphabets , and William Morris, who designed two blackletter typefaces for use on his Kelmscott Press.

The two architects shared a classicising bent that appealed to the English but was at odds with current Baroque architectural practice in Italy.

Other monuments are large Classicising, pedimented structures, surmounted by draped urns, such as that of Hannah Watson.

He tried to run a middle course between the classicising and romanticising schools then prevailing there, with a style of his own closely drawing on that of Raphael Mengs.

Simultaneously he looked at the form and colour of Venetian artists such as Titian and Palma Vecchio (1480-1528) whilst his classicising, sweet intensity earned him the name 'Raphael of Brescia'.

By the classicising 18th century the use of Hibernia had revived in formal, even somewhat pretentious, contexts, just as had the use of Caledonia, one of the Latin terms for Scotland, and Britannia for Britain.

The depiction of Oriental carpets in paintings other than portraits generally declined after the 1540s, corresponding to a decline in the taste for highly detailed representation of objects (Detailism) among painters, and grander classicising surrounds for hieratic religious images.

His work seems then to have been influenced by the school of architecture of Alessandro Specchi, Francesco de Sanctis and Filippo Raguzzini, who tended to reject the classicising of buildings in favour of a much more flamboyant style.
