DR1988:0366
Description:
- This drawing shows a design for the layout of the top half of a page, with the heading executed in pen and black ink, and the text indicated with green pencil lines. The heading was written inside a scrolled border which also incorporates an elevation of a pair of french doors in a stone frame surmounted by a sundial. - The style of many of these drawings and reprographic copies by Henry Hyams (DR1988:0332 - DR1988:0414) suggests that they were possibly for periodical illustrations. Hyams contributed articles to the periodicals 'The Builder' and 'The Architect'. Two objects in the CCA collections can be linked to the article "Music in Stone" published prior to 1926 in 'The Architect'; a reprographic copy (DR1988:0357) and a drawing (DR1988:0364) (Who's Who in Architecture, 161).
