Fonds Barry Downs
AP077
Résumé:
The Barry Downs fonds contains 6 drawings and 8 presentation panels for a total of 11 projects conceived between 1956 and 1968. This period coincided with Down's position as design architect for Thompson, Berwick, Pratt & Partners, and his subsequent partnership with Fred Thornton Hollingsworth. The documents, particularly the drawings, reveal the considerable skill Downs possessed as both a draughtsman and a designer.

DR1987:0034:001-033
Description:
- This album contains 17 drawings, 13 photographs and 2 prints which record the design and construction of the Palais de l'Industrie, Paris. The drawings, DR1987:0034:001 - DR1987:0034:0017, were probably executed in the office of J.M.V. Viel, one of the building's architects, who signed them on 1 February 1859. These drawings are rendered in pen and watercolour, and appear to be an official record of the building. The printed plan with additions in pen, DR1987:0034:0018, was signed by Viel in 1856. The photographs, DR1987:0034:019 - DR1987:0034:0030, are views of the interior and the main entrance under construction, ca. 1854, and views of the completed main entrance of 1855 or after, including details of relief sculpture and the stained-glass window.
