Either a thing looks nice or it doesn't. Why was it okay for Edwardians to make things that looked nice but it's not okay for us? The people who make beauty in the age of ugliness deserve praise, not criticism. We agree on this. Not everything the Edwardians built was beautiful. Not everything thing built since the 1960s is ugly. But, the balance is sure in favor of the Edwardians. |
