Description

After HUBERT (*1755), Design for a military hospital, around 1793, After Auguste-Cheval Hubert (1755 - 1798 ): Design for a military hospital Architectural drawing with coastal landscape Sectional drawing, c. 1793, Etching Technique: Hand colored Etching on Paper Date: c. 1793 Description: Architectural design of a classicist building. As a longitudinal section through the main and ancillary buildings in the grounds. The sectional axis runs along the centre of the arcaded courtyard and through the main building. Please also see the corresponding site plan in our offer. The sheet comes from a series of architectural illustrations published by the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in Paris before 1793. The designs convey a wonderful impression of the architectural taste of the Neoclassical period and show buildings that can be categorised as historicist and revolutionary architecture. Some of the designs are certainly to be seen as utopian projects, whereas others can be understood as realistic projects, not least due to the completeness of the plans. The series shows the student designs that were awarded a medal and a scholarship for a stay of several years in Rome as part of the Prix de Rome. The design drawings have been faithfully reproduced as prints and artistically coloured. Inscribed at the bottom centre of the printing plate: "coup du lazaret de Mr. de St. Hubert". | Watermark: Lily in the coat of arms under a crown with an additional mark at the bottom Keywords: France, Paris, Architecture, Academy, Prix de Rome, 18th century, Classicism, Architecture, France, Size: Paper: 34,0 cm x 47,3 cm (13,4 x 18,6 in), Depiction: 25,2 cm x 38,5 cm (9,9 x 15,2 in) Condition: Good condition.
