Description:
- This album consists of 23 presentation drawings and transfer lithographs for an 1859-1860 project for an opera house for the Théâtre impérial de l'opéra. Three drawings and one engraving for the project which are included in the album, are not listed in the table of contents (DR1974:0002:027:005, DR1974:0002:027:006, DR1974:0002:027:021, DR1974:0002:027:027). Site plans DR1974:0002:027:002 and DR1974:0002:027:003 show the opera house on an irregular polygonal site just off boulevard des Capucines, enclosed by rues Neuve Mogador, Neuve des Mathurins, du Chemin de fer de l'Ouest (proposed), de l'Opéra (proposed), and place de l'Opéra (proposed). The principal façade is two storeys high and five bays wide. Serliana arches are supported and separated by Doric columns below and by Ionic columns above (DR1974:0002:027:004, DR1974:0002:027:006, and DR1974:0002:027:007). Iron roof trusses are visible in cross section DR1974:0002:027:024. The auditorium is a modified horseshoe shape, squarish in plan (DR1974:0002:027:012 - DR1974:0002:027:014). A cross section through the auditorium shows the stage curtain with a trompe-l'oeil view of the opera's proposed principal façade.
