DR1974:0002:037:001-031
Description:
- This album contains drawings, prints and manuscripts chiefly related to two projects: the restoration of the Thermes de Julien and the development of the place de la Concorde, then known as place Louis XV. The ruins of the baths are documented in five drawings by Hubert Rohault de Fleury. The portfolio of manuscripts includes letters from the "Préfecture du Départment de la Seine" appointing Hubert Rohault de Fleury and Etienne Goddes to direct the restoration of the baths, a report by Rohault de Fleury and Goddes, and subsequent letters. The report includes a description of the baths, historical research, suggestions for earth removal and the purchase of adjacent buildings to be demolished. Both proposals made by Hubert Rohault de Fleury to the "Ministre de l'interior" for place Louis XV include central fountains and streets bisecting the square into four quadrants, each with fenced lawns and central fountains. One proposal shows the outer corner of each quadrant bordered by colonnades and loggias overlooking the "jardins des Tuileries", while the other proposal shows promenades bordered by a row of sculptures (DR1974:0002:037:004 - DR1974:0002:037:013). Also by Hubert Rohault de Fleury are several sketches for urban squares and five sketches for fountains, probably for place Louis XV (DR1974:0002:037:003, DR1974:0002:037:014 R/V - DR1974:0002:037:018 R/V). Projects by other architects for place Louis XV in the album include: a print by an unknown engraver of a project by Poyet for place Louis XV, including an opera house; engravings by Ollivier and Hibon of plans and fountains for place Louis XVI by Destouches and by Lusson; a lithograph by Roux of an obelisk with a fountain, probably a proposal for the base of the obelisk from Luxor. - Material unrelated to the Thermes de Julien and place Louis XV in this album includes one sheet of sketches of plans and elevations of unidentified buildings (DR1974:0002:037:001:045 R/V) and a plan showing the location of trees on the edge of place du Cirque Olympique, Paris (DR1974:0002:037:025). In addition to place Louis XVI, the engravings by Hibon and Ollivier depict a fountain for the ville de Toulouse designed by either Etienne Jacques or Etienne Jules Tierry and details of the acanthus foliage finial of the "Lanterne de Démosthénes", often known as the Choragic monument of Lysicrates, Greece (DR1974:0002:037:020 and DR1974:0002:037:021).

Rohault de Fleury collection
CI001
Synopsis:
The Rohault de Fleury collection documents the work of three generations of French architects, Hubert, his son Charles, and his grandson Georges, spanning from the early 18th to late 19th century. The collection is extremely varied encompassing both private and government commissions and including domestic work, institutional buildings, commercial buildings, urban planning, and student work from both the École des beaux-arts and the École polytechnique, and archaeological studies. Stylistically, the projects incorporate the two dominant contemporary directions in French architecture - functionalism as advocated by Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand and the classicism of the École des beaux-arts.
