Österreichische Länderbank (1882)
Representative of the “Viennese Renaissance”, this building reflects the views that tradition is to be the departure point for creating modern architecture. Command of the forms and principles of a given period or style should allow the architect to adapt the chosen style to meet the needs of the current program.
Wagner’s classical training is evident in the modified rustication on the exterior, the use of doric columns, decorative cornicing, and the mannerist entry space.
