Chapter 2: Notes

Footnote 38:

Allais and others, _Projets d’architecture ... qui ont mérités les
grands prix_, Paris, 1806, and at different dates subsequently with
varying authors and titles. For a collection of earlier projects, see
Rosenau, H., ‘The Engravings of the Grand Prix of the French Academy
of Architecture’, _Architectural History_, III (1960), 17-180, since
the original publication is very rare.

Footnote 39:

Durand was already well known as the compiler of the _Recueil et
parallèle des édifices en tout genre, anciens et modernes_, Paris,
1800, a curious work in which the drawings of important buildings of
all periods are freely modified to bring them into conformity with the
author’s modular theories of proportion. This is conventionally known
as ‘Le grand Durand’.

Footnote 40:

Rondelet, J. B., _Traité théorique et pratique de l’art de bâtir_, 4
vols, Paris, 1802-17. There were several later editions. From 1806
Rondelet taught at the École Spéciale d’Architecture, which was
shortly afterwards merged with the École Polytechnique.

Footnote 41:

French designs of this period for houses were provided in profusion in
the publications of J. C. Krafft. See Krafft, J. C., and Ransonette,
N., _Plans, coupes, élévations des plus belles maisons et des hôtels
construits à Paris et dans les environs_, Paris [_c._ 1802]; reprint,
Paris, 1909; and Krafft, J. C., _Recueil d’architecture civile_,
Paris, 1812; later ed., 1829. Krafft, J. C., and Thiollet, F., _Choix
des plus jolies maisons de Paris et de ses environs, édifices et
monuments publics_, Paris, 1849, may also be mentioned here although
very much later. It is significant of the international availability
of the earliest work listed here that it was provided with texts in
French, English, and German.

Footnote 42:

Klenze, L. von, _Walhalla in artistischer und technischer Beziehung_,
Munich, 1842.

Kultus_, Munich, 1834.

Footnote 46:

See Möllinger, K., _Elemente des Rundbogenstiles_, 2nd ed., Munich,
1848. It is convenient to retain the German term for this very
Germanic round-arched style, even though it flourished in several
countries besides Germany (see below in this chapter for Scandinavia,
and Chapter 5 for America).

Footnote 57:

Gärtner’s design for the Palace owes a good deal to a project prepared
by Klenze for a palace on the Kerameikos hill which was never begun.
Fortunately Schinkel’s more ambitious project for a palace on the
Akropolis was also not carried out.

The digging away of the ground, which originally sloped up to the
Palace above the square, and the introduction in the 1930s of the
present retaining wall with the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier have
diminished somewhat the effectiveness of the front of the Palace.
