Architect John Russell Pope was tasked with creating a building that would echo the classical style seen in Jefferson's two most famous buildings - Monticello and the University of Virginia Rotunda. The resulting structure is an impressive sight, and it serves as a reminder of the impact that Jefferson had on American architecture.
