The article analyzes the phenomenon of borrowing forms of Greek architecture in the architecture of Ancient Rome of Emperor Hadrian’s era (II century AD). This phenomenon is interpreted as the first representation of historicism in architecture – the use of elements of the former culture in actual project creativity to convey certain ideas and meanings. The article shows that the “Greek Renaissance” in the architecture of imperial Rome was an organic component of the general process of hellenophilism, characteristic of the general cultural development of that time
