About this Item

Description:

8°. Mit 7 gef. Tafeln. 7 SS. Br. mit Rückenfalz (vereinzelt gering braunfleckig). In the construction of a new Academic Building and a suitable Gymnasium in 1890, Larned (1850-1911) served as a member of the successive committees. The two Committees of 1888 (of one of which he was Chairman) prepared the reports which, after being approved by the Academic Board, were forwarded to Washington. With these documents before them, Congress granted the necessary appropriations in March, 1889. Richard M. Hunt was selected as the architect. He elaborated and improved the architectural design for the Academic Building, but he adopted, without substantial change, Larned's design for the Gymnasium. Seller Inventory # 41827
