The high points of the National Building Museum’s “Palladio and His Legacy: A Transatlantic Journey” are the architectural models: detailed, finely wrought and displayed side by side with drawings of the same buildings. That Palladio was a major influence on U.S. architecture (see Thomas Jefferson) isn’t news. But there is more in his drawings than can be gleaned from reproductions in a book, and with the models nearby, the exhibit becomes an exercise in how to look, read and translate from two dimensions to three. // Through Jan. 9. National Building Museum, 401 F St. NW. 202-272-2448.
