Hide Profile

This collection includes examples of Flanagan's architectural renderings, most done for other architects. Projects include an imaginary cityscape; the Hotel Majestic (unidentified location) ; the Marble Hill Houses for the New York City Housing Authority, designed by John Ambrose Thompson; a competition entry for the Masonic Temple and Scottish Rite Cathedral in Scranton, Pa.; the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., designed by Harry St. Clair Zogbaum ; the projected restoration of King Solomon's Temple and Citadel, published in PENCIL POINTS in 1925 and shown at the Philadelphia Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition, for architects Helmle and Corbett and archeologist John Wesley Kelchner ; and an unidentified wall and ceiling design. As well, this collection includes many examples of Flanagan's fine art drawings and etchings, including landscapes, cityscapes, travel sketches, and figure studies. Sites depicted include New York City, Nantucket (Mass.), England, France, Holland, and Venice. A small group of architectural drawings of the classical orders, perhaps done by Flanagan while he was teaching in the School of Architecture at Columbia University, completes the collection.
