A.D. Thacker fonds
AP004
Synopsis:
The A.D. Thacker fonds is comprised of project proposals and documentation dating from around 1913-1938, depicting structures designed by Thacker. Much of Thacker's work was completed in Quebec, but he also completed projects in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Thacker designed many churches for religious institutions that were directly involved in the oppressive, colonial assimilation policies and systems of the Canadian government towards indigenous people. The fonds contains 33 drawings, 16 reprographic copies, 12 photographs and 8 textual documents.

DR1974:0002:035:001-034
Description:
- This album consists primarily of preliminary and design development drawings for diverse projects - mostly domestic - from the early years of Hubert Rohault de Fleury's career. Some of the fifteen more finished drawings in wash and watercolour are probably presentation drawings. Many of the drawings are inscribed with illegible or partially legible notations concerning the project's location, client, date and other particulars. There are seven drawings for a house on rue d'Aguesseau, Paris, probably the Rohault de Fleury family residence (DR1974:0002:035:002 - DR1974:OOO2:035:006 R/V) and several drawings for a house for Rohault de Fleury's uncle on rue Saint-Romain, Paris (DR1974:0002:035:012 V). Several drawings are after plates published in Durand's "Précis des Leçons d'architecture données à l'école Royale Polytechnique (1802-1805)": plans on drawings DR1974:0002:035:011 V, DR1974:0002:035:012 R are adapted from plate 25 and combined with façades designed by Rohault de Fleury, and drawing DR1974:0002:035:013 R is based on an engraving by Charles-Pierre-Joseph Normand (pl. 23) of Hôtel Lathuille in Paris which was designed by Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1788). Perspective sketches and plans are included for the restoration of a château in Rocheux [?] for M. le Trône (DR1974:0002:035:017 R) and for the renovation for the house at Domaine de la Vallée (DR1974:0002:035:020). The drawing for a country villa was executed in 1804, while Rohault de Fleury was in Rome studying at the French Academy (DR1974:0002:035:021 R). The conceptual drawing of a small "orchestre" and the elevations of a gallery and portico gate are inscribed "Jardin du Frascati", and are perhaps travel sketches or projects executed while Rohault de Fleury was in Rome (DR1974:0002:035:032 V, DR1974:002:035:033 R, and DR1974:0002:035:034). Also included in the album are two plans for part of the Passage du saumon in Paris (DR1974:0002:035:014 R), a plan, elevation and section for a rustic pavilion for M. Abrial (DR1974:0002:035:024 V), a plan for a shepherd's house in St. Cueufin [?] (DR1974:0002:035:021 V), a house for M. Quitton in Paris (DR1974:0002:035:026 - DR1974:0002:035:027), a section, elevation and plan for a sheepfold (DR1974:0002:035:033 V) and a perspective for a rustic cabin (DR1974:0002:035:034). The album also contains a number of drawings for Empire-style interior design projects: interior wall elevations, furniture drawings, and plans, elevations and perspectives for a bed alcove.

Description:
The four portfolios of drawings and prints in this group are entitled: Croquis à placer en papier; Croquis divers; Vues d'Italie; and Croquis arrangement de boutiques, de meubles, et de decorations (DR1974:0002:030:001 - DR1974:0002:030:008; DR1974:0002:030:009 - DR1974:0002:030:030; DR1974:0002:030:031 - DR1974:0002:030:050; DR1974:0002:030:051 - DR1974:0002:030:065. -- Porfolio Croquis à placer en papier, comprises three unidentified topographical views in graphite, a drawing of furnishings from the Palais Matteï, Italy [?], a still life of fruit, and a drawing of an elephant. -- Portfolio Croquis divers, comprises both record and design drawings - ranging from sketches to renderings - of varied subject matter. The record drawings include a rendering of the Hôtel de ville, Brussels, and line drawings of a baldachin and an urban square. The design drawings for buildings and interiors in Classical, Gothic and Exotic Revival styles are probably by Hubert Rohault de Fleury and include: line and finished drawings for a dairy after Jean François Joseph LeCointre; an imaginary church, perhaps inspired by Pugin; and a hôtel on rue de Varennes, Paris. Several drawings and prints depict military subject matter: fortifications after Louis de Cormontaigne, a battery, a cannon, and revolutionary battle scenes, some in Paris. Also included are several drawings of non-architectural subject matter - a coat of arms, perhaps of the Bougainville family, cossack soldiers, a boar hunt, a rock formation and lithographic maps of Istria and Rhodes. -- Portfolio Vues d'Italie, consists of mostly freehand drawings of Italian views and buildings in Paestum, Arezzo, Naples, Rome, Caprarola, Florence, Fidenza, Genoa, and Tivoli. The buildings and urban spaces include: Villa Belvedere, Naples; the Cathedral of Borgo S. Donino; the Temple of Vesta, Tivoli; the Campidoglio, Piazza del Popolo, Palais Maccarani, Arc de Septimus Severus, Ste. Pudenziana, and Baslica of Constantine, all in Rome. The presence of preparatory drawings for some of these views suggests they were intended to be published, either as individual prints or in a book. -- Portfolio Croquis arrangement de boutiques, de meuble et de decorations, comprises mostly finished watercolour drawings for Empire style interiors and furniture, probably designed by Hubert Rohault de Fleury. Also included are an elevation for a storefront for Batton Magasin de Fleurs Fines, drawings for two garden structures, and elevations for classical interiors and mouldings.

Description:
- Group DR1994:0011:001 R/V - DR1994:0011:030 includes three sketches (DR1994:0011:001 R/V - DR1994:0011:002 R/V and DR1994:0011:030), 24 pages of notes (DR1994:0011:003 - DR1994:0011:026), two sketchbooks (DR1994:0011:027:001-035 and DR1994:0011:028:001-008 R/V), and the envelope in which these materials were housed at acquisition (DR1994:0011:029). The sketches are for various subjects including I-beams (DR1994:0011:001 R/V), a column-to-beam connection and an unidentified building (DR1994:0011:002 R/V), and a sketch plan of Mies' 1928-1929 design for the Friedrichstrasse office building in Berlin (DR1994:0011:030). Notes DR1994:0011:003 - DR1994:0011:024 are written in German and are generally illegible. Many changes have been made to the notes, and some sheets appear to have been reordered or struck out. Some of the notes may be about urban planning. The number in the upper left corner of sheets DR1994:0011:010, DR1994:0011:012-016 and DR1994:0011:020-021 may indicate the order of the topics dealt with in the notes. Notes DR1994:0011:025 are illegible. Notes DR1994:0011:026 are written in English, and may be notes of a lecture. The notes in sketchbook DR1994:0011:027:001-035 are written in German, are generally illegible, and are usually written in point form or sometimes as lists. Chicago is mentioned on several of the sheets. There is a shift in the clarity of the handwriting halfway through the sketchbook and some of the notes in the latter half may relate to Mies' readings of philosophy. Some of the notes in sketchbook DR1994:0028:001-008 R/V are written in German and some in English. The first and second pages of the sketchbook describe measurements for addresses on the campus of IIT, as well as for the Power Plant. The last three pages of the sketchbook discuss the architectural education programm at IIT and an exhibition of student work.
