Details of the Temple of Minerva, part of “Palladio and His Legacy: A Transatlantic Journey,” go on view Sept. 3 at the Carnegie Museum of Art.

PITTSBURGH — “Palladio and His Legacy: A Transatlantic Journey,” an exhibit opening Sept. 3 at the Carnegie Museum of Art, provides an opportunity for visitors to view drawings by Andrea Palladio, one of the most influential architects in the Western world.

The style Palladio created spread throughout Italy and Great Britain in the 16th and 17th centuries, but it was the United States that most fully embraced his vision, from colonial times to the present.

Thomas Jefferson called Palladio’s work the “bible” for architectural design, and Palladio’s influence is evident in some of the most iconic structures in America, from the Supreme Court to the Capitol.

An opening reception is planned at 7 p.m. Sept. 23. Admission is free. The exhibit runs to Dec. 31.

Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, with additional hours until 8 p.m. Thursdays, and noon to 5 p.m. Sundays.

Admission is $15 for adults, $12 for senior citizens age 65 and older, $11 for students with ID and children age 3 to 18, and free for members and children younger than 3. Call 412-622-3131 or visit www.cmoa.org.
