Résumé:
Le Fonds Jean Michaud est constitué autour de 5 projets étudiants, 79 projets professionnels, 6 projets non identifiés, 13 projets réalisés par d'autres architectes, ainsi que divers documents visuels et textuels. Les projets de l'architecte sont répartis en 42 projets résidentiels, 4 pour les loisirs et l'animation sociale, 9 éducatifs, 7 commerciaux et administratifs, 3 industriels et manufacturiers, 1 pour le transport routier, 9 gouvernementales, 1 médical, 2 religieux et 1 projet d'aménagement urbain. Ces projets sont principalement concentrés dans quatre régions du Québec. Il y en a 29 dans la région de Montréal (incluant Laval et Vaudreuil-Dorion; dont 17 à Montréal), 20 dans la région du Bas-Saint-Laurent et Gaspésie (11 à Rimouski), 12 en Montérégie (8 à Saint-Marc-sur-Richelieu) et 7 dans les Laurentides. Le fonds Jean Michaud comprend 1613 dessins, 959 reprographies, 271 documents photographiques, 43 documents graphiques, 1 maquette, ainsi que 2.805 m.l. de documents textuels. Ces documents ont été principalement produits entre 1950 et 1970.

- This incomplete set of numbered contract drawings, DR1989:0015:012 - DR1989:0015:016, have the same scale, colour-coding, title format and script. With the exception of this drawing, which was probably cut down, the sheets are of similar dimensions and are signed by the architect in the l.r. corner. DR1989:0015:013 - DR1989:0015:016 are keyed to this drawing. - This work is part of a group of drawings and reprographic prints of drawings for St. Peter's Home, Woking, and St. Peter's Convent, Woking, from the offices of John Loughborough Pearson and Frank Loughborough Pearson (DR1989:0015:011 - DR1989:0015:085 R/V). Composed of contract and working drawings including plans, site plans, sections, and elevations dated between 1881 and 1936, these drawings were sold at auction by the convent along with those for the older institution of St. Peter's Home, Kilburn (DR1989:0015:001 - DR1989:0015:010). Both St. Peter's Home, Kilburn, and St. Peter's Home, Woking were commissioned from John Loughborough Pearson by Benjamin Lancaster. The alterations to the Home at Kilburn were commissioned on behalf of Lancaster's wife, who founded the home and a lay nursing order which ran it. The institution at Woking was founded by Lancaster as a home for incurables in 1882 and dedicated to the memory of his deceased wife (Quiney 67-68, 254-255, and 284). It was probably first known as St. Peter's Home, Woking, not becoming a convent until ca. 1934.

DR1974:0002:022:001-021
Description:
- This album contains 21 transfer lithographs of contract and working drawings for the Chambre des Notaires, Paris. The transfer lithographs of the contract drawings (DR1974:0002:022:002, DR1974:0002:022:003 and DR1974:0002:022:005 - DR1974:0002:022:011) are signed by architects Charles Rohault de Fleury and Auguste Joseph Pellechet (Hillairet, 393), and by six unidentified hands, probably those of the contractors and/or client(s). Several revisions are evident between these transfer lithographs, dated April 1855, and the transfer lithographs of the working drawings, predominantly dated June 1855 (DR1974:0002:022:001 and DR1974:0002:022:012 - DR1974:0002:022:018). Minor changes have been made in the distribution of spaces on all floors, while more significant changes have been made in the dimensions and design of the façade bays (Bergdoll). Rohault de Fleury considered three alternate elevations (DR1974:0002:022:019 - DR1974:0002:022:021) for the principal façade with different column dispositions and window designs. The basic arrangement of the façade, however, remained the same: three floors each carrying a different order, separated by prominent entablatures and surmounted by an attic roof with dormer windows. The façade as constructed most closely approximates the elevations on transfer lithographs DR1974:0002:022:001 and DR1974:0002:022:002. The floor plans, with their detailed measurements, also correspond quite closely to the building as constructed (Bergdoll). The plans are particularly informative concerning the mixed use of iron and masonry construction. The "soubassement" consists of numerous masonry supports spanned by iron beams, while the "rez-de-chaussée" and "entresol" are constructed of iron columns, beams, and lintels allowing for abundant fenestration on the side façades (DR1974:0002:022:003 - DR1974:0002:022:004). The upper stories then revert back to a construction similar to that of the "soubassement".

Description:
- This plan of the chapel crypt of Saint Peter's Home, Woking has been signed by agents for two different contracting firms: Luscombe & Son of Exeter (Quiney 1979, 284) and E. Abley & Co. of Salisbury (Quiney 1979, 242). The plan is colour-coded, with yellow signifying masonry and red signifying brick-reinforced cement. Three sections for the chapel crypt, DR1989:0015:038 - DR1989:0015:040, correspond to the section lines of this drawing and are similar in size, format, and colour-coding. - This work is part of a group of drawings and reprographic prints of drawings for St. Peter's Home, Woking, and St. Peter's Convent, Woking, from the offices of John Loughborough Pearson and Frank Loughborough Pearson (DR1989:0015:011 - DR1989:0015:085 R/V). Composed of contract and working drawings including plans, site plans, sections, and elevations dated between 1881 and 1936, these drawings were sold at auction by the convent along with those for the older institution of St. Peter's Home, Kilburn (DR1989:0015:001 - DR1989:0015:010). Both St. Peter's Home, Kilburn, and St. Peter's Home, Woking were commissioned from John Loughborough Pearson by Benjamin Lancaster. The alterations to the Home at Kilburn were commissioned on behalf of Lancaster's wife, who founded the home and a lay nursing order which ran it. The institution at Woking was founded by Lancaster as a home for incurables in 1882 and dedicated to the memory of his deceased wife (Quiney 67-68, 254-255, and 284). It was probably first known as St. Peter's Home, Woking, not becoming a convent until ca. 1934.

Description:
- This album contains large rendered drawings executed by Hubert Rohault de Fleury between 1800 and 1802 for architectural competitions held at the École Spéciale de Peinture, Sculpture et Architecture. These include renderings submitted by him for the 1800 Grand Prix programme for an "École Nationale des Beaux-Arts" (DR1974:0002:013:002 and DR1974:0002:013:008), for which he won a "deuxième Grand Prix", and for the 1801 Grand Prix Programme for "Un forum ou place public dédié à la Paix" (DR1974:0002:013:001 and DR1974:0002:013:007). David Le Roy, professor of architectural theory at the École, has signed and dated all four drawings on the verso, which indicates that the sheets were blank before being completed "en loge" (Levine, 99 and Perouse de Montclos, 11). Drawings DR1974:0002:013:004, DR1974:0002:013:005 (front and rear elevations for the same building), and DR1974:0002:013:006 are probably renderings for either a Grand Prix competition or a "projet rendu". The subject matter depicted in drawings DR1974:0002:013:004 - DR1974:0002:013:006 remains unclear. Bergdoll suggests that the drawings may be for Grand Prix programmes, including a "Ministère des Relations Extérieures" and a warehouse (Bergdoll, "HUBERT ... ", 1985), however, the former is depicted in DR1974:0002:013:007 and is therefore part of the larger 1801 Grand Prix programme for "Un forum ou place dédié à la Paix" (1801). A warehouse complex was never chosen as a Grand Prix programme during 1800-1802, Hubert's student years at the École (Macmillan). A recent Master's thesis suggests that Hubert Rohault de Fleury may have begun his studies at the École des Beaux-Arts in 1798 rather than 1800 (Amouroux, 3), in which case the unidentified drawings could be for the Grand Prix competitions held in 1798 and 1799 for a "Bourse pour une ville maritime" and an "Élysée ou cimetière public". The drawing for a fountain in honour of General Desaix, place Thionville (DR1974:0002:013:003) is possibly an entry for a "Prix d'émulation", in which monuments were a favorite category (Jacques, 61).
