Notes
  • 1987 Charles E. Peterson Prize, Honorable Mention
  • Significance: Pavilion VIII is one of the ten pavilions, along with the Rotunda, which make up Thomas Jefferson's Academical Village. Each of the pavilions is different and was intended to serve as architectural models of good taste to the gentlemen attending "The University." The classical orders of the pavilion's were derived from Andrea Palladio's Four books of Architecture and Freart de Chambray's Parallele de l'Architecture. Jefferson designed all five of the pavilions on the east lawn in fifteen days in mid-June 1819. The corinthian order of Pavilion VIII was adapted from Diocletion's Baths as illustrated by Chambray. This adaptation of classical models to American architecture and education reveal Jefferson's thoughts on the importance of education to maintaining freedom in our self governing republic.
