Where Elegance and Beauty Meet Functional Design
The art of architecture training at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris
Seldom do we see architectural designs that never made it off the drawing board. Often such drawings were stored away in dark archives or lost forever. Architectural drawings completed at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris seemed destined for similar fates. But one American collector’s ardor for Beaux-Arts drawings has meant that we can catch a rare glimpse of architectural treasures that beautifully document professional architect training in France.
Until June 13, visitors to the New-York Historical Society can see French architectural drawings from the private collection of investor and philanthropist Peter May, in the exhibition “The Art of Architecture: Beaux-Arts Drawings From the Peter May Collection.”

Weâd be destroying an aesthetic treasure
Back Bay residents have been trying to persuade the mayor and parks commissioner to restore Copley Square since 2015. The proposed redesign cannot compare with the beauty and appropriateness of the current design of Copley Square (âCopley Square plan final,â Business, April 30).
Today, Copley Square features an elaborate, intricately designed fountain with vertical elements that reflect the tower of Old South Church, so it connects Copley Square to its architectural surroundings beautifully. The fountain and the adjoining pool provide a focal point and oasis in a busy city park.
