IV. Project Records . 1892-1954
Arranged alphabetically by project, within subseries.
This series comprises the largest portion of the collection and contains project records for 110 commissions, including those related to Dumbarton Oaks, Hamilton College, Harvard University, Mount Desert Island Hospital, Oberlin College, Princeton University, and the White House Rose Garden. This series also contains a large number of Farrand's funerary designs, from entire cemetery plans to individual headstones (including her design for the headstone of President Theodore Roosevelt).
B. Photographs
Includes a large number of small photographs Farrand or her assistant, Anne Baker, took of projects. The Clement Newbold Estate in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania is particularly well documented in large photographs.
C. Drawings
Contains topographic maps, site analyses, site plans, sketch details, perspective sketches, construction drawings, planting plans, and watercolor renderings. Collaborations with the architectural firms of Carrere & Hastings, Delano & Aldrich, Hunt & Chambers, Grosvenor Atterbury, Bertram Grosnevor Goodhue, and Frank W. Ferguson are included. There is also a watercolor of a garden niche at Land's End (later moved to the Mount, Edith Wharton's residence) by Ogden Codman, co-architect with Farrand of The Decoration of Houses.
