Final Exam
The Architect's Dream, 1840 by Thomas Cole, The Toledo Museum of Art.
On my final for intro to art history, I would always include this work which the students had not seen before and ask them to identify at least five styles of architecture - it was fun and a good way to end the exam.

The picture is too small to see clearly but I see Greek, Roman (both could be neoclassical) Egyptian and Gothic. What's the fifth?
Gothic. Here is a better view http://www.trinitynewhaven.org/history/

people's images.

I had already mentioned gothic. That's still four.
Sorry, they received credit for mentioning things like Greek Doric columns, or Egyptian Lotus-shaped capitals, etc.
