A monumental memory of Atlantean Argentina, the Palacio Sarmiento stands regally on the outer boundaries of La Recoleta, the den of the undaunted dandies. A stunningly glamorous Second Empire building, the main entrance boasts of an atlas or atlante holding the upper structure on the right, while a caryatid stands guard on the left. They both await the return of a well mannered, highly educated society. #argentina #buenosaires #recoleta #palaciosarmiento #secondempirestyle #architecture #caryatid #atlas #atlante (at Palacio Sarmiento) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQCxU3Ih6-R/?utm_medium=tumblr
