![Plan, elevation and section for a bearing wall [?] for Notre-Dame de Montréal for the renovations of the 1860s](/img-collection/yhlqF2gHeRgyaFHuQPZYmznRFwY=/500x294/9335.jpg)

Description:
- The inscribed titles on two drawings by Théophile Fahrland indicate that the subjects are a "tambour" [drum] (AR1996:1001:232) and details for a "tambour" (AR1996:1001:231) for Notre-Dame de Montréal. The subject of these drawings is identified as a "bearing wall [?]", since the definition of a "drum" - a vertical wall, either circular or polygonal in plan, that carries a dome - apparently does not apply in this case (Art and Architecture Thesaurus). Further research is required to determine the subject of these drawings more precisely.

Description:
Text in Italian. The letter was originally sent to Carlo Roner accompanied by a painting by Canova and drawings. One of the drawings, described in the letter, is a signed drawing by Vincenzo Scamozzi representing a project for Salzburg Cathedral with sketches of the dome on the verso. Lazzari also mentions a plan for the same cathedral. Lazzari expresses certainty as to the authenticity of the first drawing but declines to make a similar assertion about the plan. The letter also discusses the painting by Canova.

Description:
- A long, rectangular garden structure in the form of a loggia separating two small end pavilions. The loggia, consisting of five bays articulated by freestanding Doric columns, is approached by steps across its entire width and opens onto a series of niches occupied by sculptural figures in the rear wall. The end pavilions, which show on the main exterior elevation a pedimented window framed by rustication and a molded arch, are square in plan and capped by a dome not expressed on the exterior.

Description:
- These plans and rendering show a chalet-style house with middle- and far-eastern influences, including ogee horseshoe arches and an onion dome. Although the inscribed scale mentions an "elevation", the draughtsman was probably referring to the pictorial drawing at the top of the sheet above the three plans. This rendering includes several groups of figures in middle eastern costume in the foreground, some of whom are riding animals -- horses, a camel, and an elephant. The background, includes two walled structures with minaret-like spires.
