DR1988:0433:032
Description:
- 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.

ARCH286690
Description:
This item contains harmful materials including violent imagery. The drawing illustrates the discrete elements of an exhibition involving several large-scale installations. One of these installations shows a crane on which a net filled with mannequins is suspended; the mannequins are soaked in oil, in the words of the designers, to represent the impacts of oil spills on the global population. This image, however, suggests violence beyond environmental disasters.

DR1974:0002:012:001-049
Description:
- This album contains student drawings by Hubert Rohault de Fleury executed at the École spéciale de peinture, sculpture et architecture, Paris (1798-1802), including drawings for the Grand Prix Competitions of 1800, 1801 and 1802, the Concours d'essai, the Concours d'émulation of 1800 and 1801, and other undetermined competitions. The drawings illustrate all stages of the design and competition process, ranging from preliminary sketches and esquisses to finished renderings, but do not include the renderings submitted to the Grand Prix Competitions. Drawings for the conversion of the Église de la Madeleine into a Temple de la Gloire (ca. 1806-1807) include line and wash drawings. Hubert's 1800 Grand Prix entry for an École nationale des beaux-arts was awarded the "deuxième Grand Prix" and this album includes: the esquisse; a handwritten copy of the programme; 11 large-scale line drawings - sections, elevations, and details of the ornamentation (DR1974:0002:012:008 R; DR1974:0002:012:012 R; DR1974:0002:012:037, DR1974:0002:012:039, DR1974:0002:012:041 - DR1974:0002:012:049). Two other drawings depict an École des beaux-arts, but they do not conform to the esquisse of Hubert's 1800 Grand Prix entry (DR1974:0002:012:012 V and DR1974:0002:012:013). Hubert's 1801 Grand Prix entry for a forum or public square dedicated to peace, is represented by the esquisse and four elevations, one coloured with wash (DR1974:0002:012:009 R/V - DR1974:0002:012:011 R). Studies of triumphal arches, probably relate to this project (DR1974:0002:012:011 V). Hubert's winning 1802 Grand Prix entry for a public fair with a hall for the exhibition of products of industry located on the banks of a large river is represented by an elevation and sectional elevation for the esquisse; 3 prints; finished plans, one of which is possibly part of the esquisse; elevations; sectional elevations; and one section (DR1974:0002:012:001 R/V - DR1974:0002:012:006 R/V:001-004). Three drawings which are apparently for public fairs are perhaps studies for the 1802 Grand Prix Competition (DR1974:0002:012:007 R:001-003). Also included are Hubert's entries in the Concours d'essai for each of these Grand Prix Competitions. The presence of "devises" on several drawings indicates they are the submitted competition entries: a school or college for the Concours d'émulation of 25 June 1801, for which Rohault de Fleury won a medal, a temple, a lycée, an opera house, a public bath, a sepulchral chapel, and possibly an exchange. An uncharacteristic nocturnal elevation is possibly for a cenotaph dedicated to Isaac Newton (DR1974:0002:012:014). Rohault de Fleury's design for the conversion of the Église de la Madeleine is represented by two plans (one with an elevation) drawn on engraved plans of the Madeleine, three sketch plans, a section, an elevation of a capital and other ornamentation, and an engraved plan of the designs by Pierre Contant d'Ivry and Guillaume Martin Couture for the same project.
