Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (Architecture) Details
The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts is the finest example of Furness’s work. The richly ornamented exterior — executed in juxtapositions of sandstone, pink granite, red brick and purplish terra-cotta — is somber by comparison with the interior where gold floral patterns are set on walls of Venetian red beneath a blue ceiling sprinkled with silver stars.
Visiting
The Academy is a great place to see the work of Furness because it's open to the public five days a week so you can marvel at the architecture from both inside and out.
