Description:
- Abrasion marks at the t. and c.r. suggest that a finial design was altered and in one case redrawn. - One of a group of working drawings for William Burn's October 1849 project for Fonthill House, Wiltshire, a country house designed in the Jacobethan style. This group represents only one of the projects that Burn proposed for Fonthill House; the final project, executed in 1856, was much smaller (Walker, 31, illustrated in Hitchcock, vol. 2, fig. VIII 31). Drawings include plans, elevations, and sections, as well as full-scale drawings of masonry details. Approximately half of the drawings are part of a numbered series from one to twenty-two, while the other drawings, mostly masonry details, were not numbered. These latter drawings are not as carefully finished, and a few are incomplete.

DR1974:0002:003:001-105
Description:
- This album consists primarily of design development drawings and the architect's copies of the working drawings for Hôtel Soltykoff. The hôtel consisted of a single rectangular pavilion with a central porte cochère and a rear courtyard with an outbuilding. The principal façade facing rue Saint-Arnaud (now rue Volney) and the interior were lavishly decorated. The structure of the hôtel consisted of load-bearing masonry combined with cast-iron columns, iron beams, and interior wood framing. The exterior was finished with cut stone. The album contains plans, elevations, details and sections, and full-scale drawings of the architectural elements, ornamentation, as well as joinery. Many of the drawings and transfer lithographs are inscribed with both the date of the drawing/original and the date of contract. Revisions, which are also often dated, have been made either directly on the drawing or on pieces of paper attached to the sheets. Inscriptions indicate that in some cases these revisions were added after the construction of the building. Also included are preliminary drawings (DR1974:0002:003:028 R/V), and detailed interior views, some of which are partially coloured with watercolour (DR1974:0002:003:049, DR1974:0002:003:069, DR1974:0002:003:078). The drawings and transfer lithographs have been grouped, possibly by the compiler of the album, according to the part of the building represented, and by the type of construction: stonework, woodwork, framework, and ironwork. Unbound material inserted into the album includes four large unbound full-scale preliminary sketches for architectural ornament, possibly for Hôtel Soltykoff (DR1974:0002:003:061 - DR1974:0002:003:064) and two drawings for a terrace and staircase, apparently not for Hôtel Soltykoff (DR1974:0002:003:003 and DR1974:0002:003:042).

DR1980:0060:001
Description:
- This perspective drawing, with the plans for the first (DR1980:0060:002) and second (DR1980:0060:003) floors, form a set of early presentation drawings. According to David De Long, the scale is probably 1/4" = 1' (see object file). The house is presented as if seen from behind a window across the street. De Long also notes that this drawing does not show the low wall and the garden court indicated in the plans shown in Hitchcock; that the CCA drawing portrays a less cubic house than the photograph of the building in Hitchcock due to the former's higher point of view; and that the front windows in the drawing extend down to a sill slightly higher than that which supports the plants whereas they stop short of halfway down to the "plant" sill in the finished house.
