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.

DR1989:0026:001-051
Description:
- This group is comprised of drawings and photographs for Francis Fowke's winning entry in the 1864 competition for the Natural History and Patent Museums, South Kensington, London, and correspondence and pamphlets related to John Liddell's subsequent claim (1866) of sole authorship of the external treatment of Fowke's design. A hand-coloured reprographic copy (DR1989:0026:005) is apparently an elevation for Fowke's final design for the Natural History and Patent Museum, and a photograph of the section through the Patent Museum (DR1989:0026:001) is also possibly for Fowke's final design. Other drawings (DR1989:0026:003, DR1989:0026:006, and DR1989:0026:007 R/V) and another photograph (DR1989:0026:002) are possibly for preliminary designs for the competition. Many of the letters are by John Liddell to the First Commissioner of Works (W.F. Cowper and later, Lord John Manners), and Alfred Waterhouse asserting his claim to authorship of the external treatment of Fowke's design (DR1989:0026:013, DR1989:0026:015, DR1989:0026:017, DR1989:0026:029, DR1989:0026:031-33, DR1989:0026:036, DR1989:0026:040). The First Commissioner's secretaries' replies to these are also included (DR1989:0026:016, DR1989:0026:035, DR1989:0026:041-043). Liddell compiled many of these letters, as well as some not included in this group, into a pamphlet in order to publicize his case (DR1989:0026:020, DR1989:0026:023-24, DR1989:0026:026-27, DR1989:0026:039, DR1989:0026:044-045). There are ten copies of this transcribed correspondence as well letters to the editors of four London newspapers (DR1989:0026:022, DR1989:0026:025, DR1989:0026:028, DR1989:0026:030, DR1989:0026:051). Also included is Liddell's correspondence to two of the competition judges (DR1989:0026:019, DR1989:0026:037, DR1989:0026:038) and several Members of Parliament (DR1989:0026:014, DR1989:0026:018, DR1989:0026:021, DR1989:0026:034) solicting support for his claims. A letter from Fowke to Liddell accompanies the payment of Liddell's portion of the competition premium (DR1989:0026:009). Three letters discuss a recommendation for Liddell from Sir Henry Cole (DR1989:0026:010-012). Pamphlets include two copies of pamphlets (one incomplete) published in 1863 by the House of Commons describing Sir Richard Owens' ideas for the Natural History Museum, with hand-coloured plans and sections drawn by Sir Henry A. Hunt and printed by Henry Hansard (DR1989:0026:046-47); two copies of the competition guidelines, each annotated with sketches, probably by Fowke and Liddell (DR1989:0026:048-049); and two copies of the description of Fowke's design, one with his motto and modifications (DR1989:0026:050 ?). The tabletop designs on the verso of some of the sketches date to 1907 and are unrelated to the other material in the collection (DR1989:0026:006 R/V and DR1989:0026:007 R/V).
