Description:
- This album contains drawings of the Domaine de La Vallée and for extensive renovations proposed by Hubert Rohault de Fleury to the house and its outbuildings, including the demolition of some portions the existing structures. The drawings vary from rough sketches to line drawings, some coloured with wash. Nine site plans for the estate depict the proposed placement of buildings, the layout of roads, and the landscaping. The original house and outbuildings are documented in five rough sketches with dimensioning, possibly measured drawings executed on site, (DR1974:0002:025:039 - DR1974:0002:025:043) and several more finished plans and elevations (DR1974:0002:025:021 R/V, DR1974:0002:025:025, and DR1974:0002:025:031). These five rough sketches include a number of thumbnail sketches, possibly preliminary ideas for the renovation. The renovation proposals for the house and outbuildings include plans, exterior and interior elevations, an axonometric sketch as well as more complete designs for a portico and a porch. Also included are Rohault de Fleury's designs for new outbuildings and other structures: a bridge, possibly with several alternate designs, a levee planted with trees, a granary, a stable, a combined stable and cowshed, a sheepfold, two schemes for a garden temple and two gates. Many of the inscriptions and written documents are illegible, but they apparently relate to construction methods, building materials, proposed alterations to existing structures, and cost calculations. There are several drawings for unidentified buildings in the album having no apparent link to the Domaine de La Vallée structures.

Description:
Album containing 100 photogravures made from photographs by Baldus following a special process of his own, that would restore them on the reverse side. Malcolm Daniel writes: "Baldus's Louvre photographs found their final incarnation in a gravure publication 'Palais du Louvre et des Tuileries'. The three volumes in this set largely parallel the albums that Baldus had made earlier for the Minister of State; again the majority of the images are of sculptural and ornamental details from the New Louvre, but statuary and ornament from the Tuileries Palace and Gardens are also included. The first edition of the 'Palais du Louvre et des Tuileries', published by Baldus himself, was offered for sale in fascicles beginning in late 1869, and the series was completed by the end of 1871. Two volumes, each with 100 plates, focused on interior and exterior decoration. Because of the success of the first two volumes, a third, showing both interior and exterior motifs was produced, and the three-volume set was published by Morel in 1875." ('History of Photography', p. 120-121). This album contains views of sculptural and ornamental details (some of them fragments) of the models made the decoration of the staircase of the Palais des Tuileries, the Entrance to the Gardens of the Tuileries, the façade on the Carrousel of the Louvre, the Flore Pavilion and the Minister of State.

Description:
- This book contains 8 pages of text primarily describing projects by Charles Rohault de Fleury for the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle. The text is followed by a lithograph after Lemaitre, which depicts the exterior of the "serres chaudes", and by 14 prints engraved/etched by Marlier depicting the buildings designed by Rohault de Fleury for the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle between 1833 and 1839. The "serres chaudes" are illustrated by 8 prints: interior perspectives, plans, elevations, sections and details of the prefabricated columns. Four prints are included for the Galerie de minéralogie et de géologie, the monkey house and the reservoirs - mostly elevations, plans and sections. Also included is a site plan of the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle and one print of comparative examples - mostly plans, sections and details - of English "serres chaudes", including the Warm House and the Temperate House at the Colosseum in London, the Temperate House at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, Camellia House and Palm House at Loddiges Nursery in Hackney, and a glasshouse with a semidome, also in Hackney.

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.
