Description:
- The three portfolios of this group are entitled: Figures et Statues (DR1974:0002:031:001 - DR1974:0002:031:024), Architecture Antique Mélanges (DR1974:0002:031:025 - DR1974:0002:031:043), and Architecture Moderne Mélanges (DR1974:0002:031:044 - DR1974:0002:031:055). -- Portfolio Figures et Statues comprises primarily drawings of classical figures and architectural sculpture from both antique and 19th century sources. Few of the sources of these drawings are clearly identified, with the exception of Genie de la Liberté from the Colonne de Juillet (DR1974:0002:031:016:003). There are a number of drawings of sculpture from the 16th century tomb monument of Maximillian I in Innsbruck (DR1974:0002:031:017 - DR1974:0002:031:023:001-003). -- Portfolio Architecture Antique Mélanges comprises mostly architectural drawings from buildings or monuments in Pisa, Rome, Tivoli, Naples, Florence, Viterbo, and Nice. Also included are a reconstruction of Pliny the Younger's Villa Laurentine (DR1974:0002:031:043), an orthographic drawing of the L'arc des orfèvres (DR1974:0002:031:032:001-002), and an interior perspective of an imaginary church, perhaps inspired by Pugin (DR1974:0002:031:027). -- Portfolio Architecture Moderne Mélanges comprises drawings which represent the classical tradition of 19th century French and English architecture (Bergdoll, p. 2). The French subjects include the Palais de justice, Amiens (DR1974:0002:031:044:002), the Louvois fountain by Visconti, (DR1974:0002:031:049:002), the Arc du Carrousel (DR1974:0002:031:053:001), and the Vendome column (DR1974:0002:031:053:002). English architecture is represented by Charles Robert Cockerell's Hanover Chapel, Regent Street, London (DR1974:0002:031:054:001), and late Georgian\early Regency houses (DR1974:0002:031:045:001-002 and DR1974:0002:031:046:001-002). The drawings related to Amiens Cathedral (DR1974:0002:031:044:001-002) and the Cloaca Maxima (DR1974:0002:031:052:002) are notable exceptions to the contemporary contents of the folder.

DR1986:0442:001-022
Description:
- Michele Marieschi was a short-lived Venetian vedutista whose small graphic output was limited almost exclusively to this group of twenty-one etchings. The album is a modern-bound collection of the first edition (before the addition of plate numbers) of Marieschi's prints. The prints were all designed and etched by Marieschi himself, with only two exceptions. The frontpiece, with its portrait of Marieschi (and proud proclamation of his status as painter and architect) was drawn by Anzolo Trivisan (Angelo Trevisani, 1669-after 1753) and engraved by Carlo Orsolini (1710-1780). The dedication to the Prince of Beauvau-Craon and the prince's coat of arms, which appear below Marieschi's view of the Piazzetta and Ducal Palace, were also engraved by Orsolini. RH - Marieschi was probably called an architect in the frontispiece to this volume of etchings (folio 1) in reference to his activity as a stage designer. Folio 21 gives us an indication of Marieschi's activity as a stage designer. According to Fabio Mauroner (Print Collector's Quarterly, vol. 27), the painted façade shown on the Church of San Rocco on the first state of folio 21 was designed by Marieschi. Here Marieschi is probably illustrating a festival which took place on the saint's feast day, since easel paintings are also shown placed against the façades of the buildings to the right in the square. It is interesting that in the second state of the same folio, another façade is shown, the one added to the church by the architect Macarazzi in 1768. According to the text on the first state of the same folio, the original façade on San Rocco was constructed in marble according to a design by Sebastiano Serlio (Mauroner, pl. 16). In addition, the exaggerated two-point and multi-point perspectives which Marieschi uses in many of his views of Venice, also reveal the influence of the principles of stage set design as illustrated in the contemporary drawings of the Bibiera family.
