DR1989:0026:001-051
Description:
- This group is comprised of drawings and photographs for Francis Fowke's winning entry in the 1864 competition for the Natural History and Patent Museums, South Kensington, London, and correspondence and pamphlets related to John Liddell's subsequent claim (1866) of sole authorship of the external treatment of Fowke's design. A hand-coloured reprographic copy (DR1989:0026:005) is apparently an elevation for Fowke's final design for the Natural History and Patent Museum, and a photograph of the section through the Patent Museum (DR1989:0026:001) is also possibly for Fowke's final design. Other drawings (DR1989:0026:003, DR1989:0026:006, and DR1989:0026:007 R/V) and another photograph (DR1989:0026:002) are possibly for preliminary designs for the competition. Many of the letters are by John Liddell to the First Commissioner of Works (W.F. Cowper and later, Lord John Manners), and Alfred Waterhouse asserting his claim to authorship of the external treatment of Fowke's design (DR1989:0026:013, DR1989:0026:015, DR1989:0026:017, DR1989:0026:029, DR1989:0026:031-33, DR1989:0026:036, DR1989:0026:040). The First Commissioner's secretaries' replies to these are also included (DR1989:0026:016, DR1989:0026:035, DR1989:0026:041-043). Liddell compiled many of these letters, as well as some not included in this group, into a pamphlet in order to publicize his case (DR1989:0026:020, DR1989:0026:023-24, DR1989:0026:026-27, DR1989:0026:039, DR1989:0026:044-045). There are ten copies of this transcribed correspondence as well letters to the editors of four London newspapers (DR1989:0026:022, DR1989:0026:025, DR1989:0026:028, DR1989:0026:030, DR1989:0026:051). Also included is Liddell's correspondence to two of the competition judges (DR1989:0026:019, DR1989:0026:037, DR1989:0026:038) and several Members of Parliament (DR1989:0026:014, DR1989:0026:018, DR1989:0026:021, DR1989:0026:034) solicting support for his claims. A letter from Fowke to Liddell accompanies the payment of Liddell's portion of the competition premium (DR1989:0026:009). Three letters discuss a recommendation for Liddell from Sir Henry Cole (DR1989:0026:010-012). Pamphlets include two copies of pamphlets (one incomplete) published in 1863 by the House of Commons describing Sir Richard Owens' ideas for the Natural History Museum, with hand-coloured plans and sections drawn by Sir Henry A. Hunt and printed by Henry Hansard (DR1989:0026:046-47); two copies of the competition guidelines, each annotated with sketches, probably by Fowke and Liddell (DR1989:0026:048-049); and two copies of the description of Fowke's design, one with his motto and modifications (DR1989:0026:050 ?). The tabletop designs on the verso of some of the sketches date to 1907 and are unrelated to the other material in the collection (DR1989:0026:006 R/V and DR1989:0026:007 R/V).

The architectural framework consists of two pairs of columns, unfluted Corinthian and Solomonic, supporting an elaborate broken pediment. In the centre is a tall painting depicting the entombment of Christ in a diagonal composition, with Mary Magdalen kneeling prominently in the foreground. The top of the altar is adorned with angels holding instruments of the Passion - cross, nails, crown of thorns - and a staff with a cross symbolizing the Resurrection. - The incomplete series of numbered prints, DR1988:0306 - DR1988:0331, shows Early Baroque church facades in Rome, altars, tombs, wall monuments, tabernacles and an antique temple.

DR1981:0017:001 R/V
Description:
- Most of the drawings in the group DR1981:0017:001 R/V - DR1981:0017:079 R/V are by Luca Danese, with the exception of those by Giovanni Antonio Zani (DR1981:0017:034, DR1981:0017:066 R/V, DR1981:0017:67 R/V and DR1981:0017:069 R/V), and the possible exception of the lower drawing on DR1981:0017:063 R, which bears the inscription, "Giovanni Danese". The Danese drawings include sketches of buildings, fortifications, facades, temporary architecture, locks and bridges as well as maps and designs for escutcheons, facades, temporary architecture, locks and one bridge. Most of these drawings show structures in the area around Comacchio and Ferrara in northeastern Italy, but there are also a number of record drawings made as far south as Rome, and as far north as Venice. In addition, there are plans which were probably not made "in situ" for fortifications at Innsbruck, Austria (DR1981:0017:064 R) and Altenburg (Mosonmagyarovar), Hungary (DR1981:0017:018 R). The drawings range in date between 1629 (DR1981:0017:018 R) and 1641 (DR1981:0017:0017:010 V), with a number of the record drawings made in Rome inscribed "1635". The Zani drawings are undated designs for military storage facilities, including a design for a magazine at Ferrara (DR1981:0017:067 R). Many of the sheets and secondary supports have been inscribed by an unknown contemporary Italian hand, including the drawing DR1981:0017:039 which gives Danese's death date as "1672". The date at which the drawings were bound into an album has not been determined.

Description:
- This reprographic copy shows the interior of a room with two rows of columns supporting a barrel vaulted arch over the central aisle. The rest of the ceiling is coffered. The room is identified as a furniture showroom because the walls of the room are lined with furniture and there are several groups of people standing around a few chairs and rugs in the centre of the room. - 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).

- Felice Beato made several views of this temple complex, showing stone doorways and walls, stelae, a stone altar set, and the tomb itself (Harris, pp. 97-99, cat. nos. 52-54). - This photograph, taken in the inner section of the tomb complex, shows an altar set comprising two stone altars: one supporting the five stone vessels visible in the foreground, and a second altar, of uncertain purpose, surmounted by at least two carved stone "pineapples", visible behind (Paludan, p. 187; p. 189, fig. 200). The dome-like tomb itself is just visible in the background, behind a candlestick, at c.l.

DR1974:0002:022:001-021
Description:
- This album contains 21 transfer lithographs of contract and working drawings for the Chambre des Notaires, Paris. The transfer lithographs of the contract drawings (DR1974:0002:022:002, DR1974:0002:022:003 and DR1974:0002:022:005 - DR1974:0002:022:011) are signed by architects Charles Rohault de Fleury and Auguste Joseph Pellechet (Hillairet, 393), and by six unidentified hands, probably those of the contractors and/or client(s). Several revisions are evident between these transfer lithographs, dated April 1855, and the transfer lithographs of the working drawings, predominantly dated June 1855 (DR1974:0002:022:001 and DR1974:0002:022:012 - DR1974:0002:022:018). Minor changes have been made in the distribution of spaces on all floors, while more significant changes have been made in the dimensions and design of the façade bays (Bergdoll). Rohault de Fleury considered three alternate elevations (DR1974:0002:022:019 - DR1974:0002:022:021) for the principal façade with different column dispositions and window designs. The basic arrangement of the façade, however, remained the same: three floors each carrying a different order, separated by prominent entablatures and surmounted by an attic roof with dormer windows. The façade as constructed most closely approximates the elevations on transfer lithographs DR1974:0002:022:001 and DR1974:0002:022:002. The floor plans, with their detailed measurements, also correspond quite closely to the building as constructed (Bergdoll). The plans are particularly informative concerning the mixed use of iron and masonry construction. The "soubassement" consists of numerous masonry supports spanned by iron beams, while the "rez-de-chaussée" and "entresol" are constructed of iron columns, beams, and lintels allowing for abundant fenestration on the side façades (DR1974:0002:022:003 - DR1974:0002:022:004). The upper stories then revert back to a construction similar to that of the "soubassement".
