Item Details

This is an antique framed architectural plan. A French, lithograph set of drawings from Constructions Modernes et Economiques, dating to the late Victorian period, circa 1900.


Beautiful architectural illustrations presented in a tasteful framed arrangement
Displays a desirable aged patina and in good order throughout
Plans mounted from the French title, released in multiple volumes at the end of the 19th century
Replete with great colour, industrial interest and French architectural chic


Each of the four page excerpts sit within a tasteful card border
Shows plans for a house with a floorplan, front and side elevations and details
Finished with gilt border embellishments upon a muted blue ground
Dressed to the rear with mounting wire for ease of hanging


This is a superb framed set of architectural plans, with an aesthetic merit beyond their original functional use. In period, architects used such plans for inspiration, and the volumes from which they came are scarce and celebrated. A treat for Francophiles or architects alike, delivered ready to display.
