Description:
- This etching of a fireworks construction or macchina represents a public celebration of the making of a poison antidote "che si fà nella Città di Venezia" (as it is done in Venice). The macchina consists of a pavilion raised on a base. The pavilion appears to be square, with a central opening a large smoking vat of theriaca. The top storey appears to be octagonal and is crowned by a tent. The relief on the front of the octagon shows a view of the Piazza San Marco and the Doge's Palace from the Molo.

Description:
The Projects series, 1911-1973, consists of Oud's work on 67 projects, mainly within The Netherlands, as well as within Germany, Czechoslovakia and the United States. The Projects Series includes Oud's early conceptual drawings, such as sketches, as well as design development drawings, such as elevations and plans. The series includes photographs of Oud’s realized buildings as well as photographs of Oud's designs. The Projects Series is particularly strong in Oud's work on social housing projects while he served as municipal architect for the Rotterdam Housing Authority from 1918-1933, including his works on standardization and mass produced housing estates for low income residents. The series is also strong in Oud's designs for major public buildings and post-World War Two reconstruction, such as the Hofplein design. The series includes Oud's designs for private residences, World War Two memorials and competitions. The series also includes photographs taken of Oud exhibit models and his interior designs.

The Projects Series is particularly strong in Oud's work on social housing projects while he served as municipal architect for the Rotterdam Housing Authority from 1918-1933, including his works on standardization and mass produced housing estates for low income residents. The series is also strong in Oud's designs for major public buildings and post-World War Two reconstruction, such as the Hofplein design. The series includes Oud's designs for private residences, World War Two memorials and competitions. The series also includes photographs taken of Oud exhibit models and his interior designs.
