Description: Plans and elevations for a house for Mrs. Abram Hewitt. NB. similar plans are marked "Villa at Bar Harbor for Mrs. Jones". These are attached to a wooden stick originally for storage by architect. Ink and pencil on linen. Nice rendered elevations. 2012 exhibit text: Reverie Cove Villa for Mrs. John Davies Jones Bar Harbor, ME, 1892 Ink on linen The Gerrish Collection, MDI Historical Society This cottage was an early significant commission for Savage. This very large revival style house originally had a tile roof and stucco exterior and is located on the shore in Bar Harbor. These elevations contrast each other. The entry facade (land side) is more formally rendered; note the windows, while the facade facing the water is rendered more playfully and cartoonish with an indication of curtains and drapes in the windows. This technique reappears in other Savage elevation studies. This cottage survives in Bar Harbor. [show more]

Ten (10)drawings in total. 2012 exhibit text: Bar Harbor Fire Station Bar Harbor, ME, 1910 Ink on linen The Gerrish Collection, MDI Historical Society The Fire Station is a very functional building with four arched openings for equipment and a functional tower for drying the hoses. The tower, unfortunately truncated in the 1950s, was the most striking element of the design giving the building a powerful presence on the town green. Observe the sign-off by the building committee on the elevation drawing. This large scale rendering of an entry canopy bracket for the Fire Station is a fine rendered detail. The brackets and canopy can still be appreciated today [show more]
