Abstract
Pei's fundamental passion for geometric precision, his feeling for landscape and the relationship of a building to the life of a city were encapsulated in the Pyramid of the Lourve. The 71ft high glass and steel structure stands as a tribute to modern engineering technology in a setting of historic classicism.
