Description:
Work shows site plan for RGU at Schoolhill site. Pencil and ink on paper, no maker or date on the piece, but is from the same set of work from J.A.O Allan Ross and Allan Chartered Architects. A set of 4 Drawings (not bound) rolled together depicting plans for RGU buildings, 3 are on a parchment type paper and one is on a wax coated fabric paper. Pen and watercolours. They are unsigned but the address of 256 Union Terrace appears on ABDRG2010.1.1 which could indicate that it is work from John Alexander Ogg Allan. The proximity of this work to ABDRG2009.572-574 (work by J.A.O Allan Ross and Allan Chartered Architects) is also indicative that this work could indeed have the same maker. The finish on this work is less formal than others and the pieces seem to preliminary sketches/ workings, with pencil amendments on them.
