Description:
The papers in this collection are related to the participation of Barry Campbell in a project to create a 1:50 scale model for the Maison d'Artiste, an unbuilt project designed by architects Theo van Doesburg and Cor van Eesteren in 1923. The model, sponsored by lawyer Piet Sanders and Barry Campbell, was made by Frans Postma and was exhibited at the Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal (2009-2010) and the Tate Modern (2010) as part of the exhibition "Van Doesburg and the International Avant Garde: Constructing a New World". In 2013, Barry Campbell, Frans Postma and Victor Veldhuijzen van Zanten donated the 1:50 model to Het Nieuwe Instituut/The New Institute in Rotterdam, the Netherlands (Piet Sanders, who died in September, 2012, was also named as a donor). A 1:75 scale model was made for each of the donors. Textual records in the collection include correspondence, a copy of the donor agreement, and a text by Bertus Mulder. Drawings include printouts of plans, elevations, sections, and perspectives. There are also photographs of drawings. Digital files consist of a panorama by Postma & Partner. The collection includes a printout of a photograph of Barry Campbell with the 1:50 model.

Description:
- A view of the Villa d'Este and its garden, depicting the central alley down the middle of the garden, with the villa rising above and outlined against the sky. The standpoint from which the view is taken lies at the centre of a circle of cypresses, the cypresses having been omitted to permit an unobstructed prospect of the garden. The effect of perspectival recession is intensified by an artifical but dramatic increase in the size of the foreground fountains and statues (representing the Liberal Arts), and by the diminutive stature of the human figures who work or saunter in the garden nearby. Along the central alley, which links a series of terraces mounting to the villa, are visible the "Fountain of Gentle Dragons", the so-called "viale de Cento Fontane", and the multistoried "Fountain of the Cups" attributed to Gian Lorenzo Bernini. In the far right background can be seen the "Fountain of the Birds" and the "Fountain of Proserpina". Variety and vertical accentuation in the composition are provided by a few cypresses and umbrella pines in the middle distance.

Description:
- Michele Marieschi was a short-lived Venetian vedutista whose small graphic output was limited almost exclusively to this group of twenty-one etchings. The album is a modern-bound collection of the first edition (before the addition of plate numbers) of Marieschi's prints. The prints were all designed and etched by Marieschi himself, with only two exceptions. The frontpiece, with its portrait of Marieschi (and proud proclamation of his status as painter and architect) was drawn by Anzolo Trivisan (Angelo Trevisani, 1669-after 1753) and engraved by Carlo Orsolini (1710-1780). The dedication to the Prince of Beauvau-Craon and the prince's coat of arms, which appear below Marieschi's view of the Piazzetta and Ducal Palace, were also engraved by Orsolini. RH - Marieschi was probably called an architect in the frontispiece to this volume of etchings (folio 1) in reference to his activity as a stage designer. Folio 21 gives us an indication of Marieschi's activity as a stage designer. According to Fabio Mauroner (Print Collector's Quarterly, vol. 27), the painted façade shown on the Church of San Rocco on the first state of folio 21 was designed by Marieschi. Here Marieschi is probably illustrating a festival which took place on the saint's feast day, since easel paintings are also shown placed against the façades of the buildings to the right in the square. It is interesting that in the second state of the same folio, another façade is shown, the one added to the church by the architect Macarazzi in 1768. According to the text on the first state of the same folio, the original façade on San Rocco was constructed in marble according to a design by Sebastiano Serlio (Mauroner, pl. 16). In addition, the exaggerated two-point and multi-point perspectives which Marieschi uses in many of his views of Venice, also reveal the influence of the principles of stage set design as illustrated in the contemporary drawings of the Bibiera family.
