I. Le Roy assis en une estuve..., Emblem 28 from M. MAIER: Atalanta fugiens. Manuscript, French, 17th century. Artist unknown. Water-colour and black ink, 31.5 by 19.2 cm. An emblem from a manuscript copy (translated from the Latin into French) of Michael Maier's famous alchemical work, Atalanta fugiens, hoc est, emblemata nova de secretis naturae chymica, Oppenheim, 1617. This is one of 60 manuscripts and 224 rare books in the Manly P. Hall Collection of Alchemical Books and Manuscripts, which range in date from the 16th to the 19th century.

II. Design for the Heidi Weber Pavilion in Zurich (elevation facing the lake), by Le Corbusier. 1964. Pencil, crayon and coloured paper on tracing paper, 22.9 by 70.6 cm. A drawing for one of Le Corbusier's last projects - a pavilion to house a small collection of Corbusiana for the art gallery owner Heidi Weber. The three finished drawings in the collection reflect Le Corbusier's fascination with Cubist assemblage and collage. In addition to this design, other Le Corbusier holdings include lecture notes, correspondence, architectural designs, and miscellaneous papers.
Attributed works:
III. Fols.6v-7r from 'Il presente libro d'edifici et machine' (54 leaves) by Francesco di Giorgio Martini, showing a wheeled device for lifting heavy weights and Mars wielding his sword on a chariot armed with revolving scythes. c.1475-80. Pen and brown ink and wash over black chalk, each leaf 27.4 by 21 cm. This and related manuscripts containing drawings of machines by Francesco di Giorgio Martini (with some workshop assistance) show the influence of his Sienese predecessor, the engineer Mariano Taccola, and provide a link between late-medieval mechanical ideas and the inventions of Leonardo da Vinci. This is a smaller version of a nearly identical manuscript in the British Museum.
Attributed works:
IV. Three sketches (fol.200) from Album 11, by Jacques-Louis David, showing A rider on a rearing horse, Marius at Minturnae and Figures around a bed. c.1775-85. Pen and black ink with black chalk, 48 by 33 cm. A page from an album of drawings by Jacques-Louis David compiled by the artist himself. The drawings date from his two sojourns in Rome, of 1775-80 and 1784-85. Album 11, one of five (of an original twelve) albums that remain intact, contains 99 drawings of antiquities, studies after old masters, Italian landscapes and views of Rome.
Attributed works:
IX. Drawing for the second day of the Festival of the Chinea, Rome, by Paolo Posi. 1757. Pen and brown ink over graphite, 28.1 by 43.5 cm. This drawing shows an elaborate temporary structure - a cuccagna mounted with edible delights - erected for the Festival of the Chinea, held annually in Rome throughout most of the 18th century. A study for a commemorative print issued for the festival, it is one of twelve rare Chinea drawings by Paolo Posi and Giuseppe Palazzi. The Research Institute has a nearly complete set of Chinea etchings and a large body of related 18th-century Roman festival material.

V. Storyboard for an animated film, by Hans Richter. c.1970. Coloured ink and pencil on board, 48 by 43 cm. This storyboard by Dadaist film-maker Hans Richter shows a sequence of abstract images for an animated film he worked on with the photographer and cinematographer Arnold Eagle. The project was based on a script written in 1927 by the Russian avant-garde artist Kasimir Malevich. The Arnold Eagle archive also includes extensive documentation of Richter's major Dada and Surrealist films Dreams that Money Can Buy and 8×8.

The two thousand items (correspondence, drawings, photographs) in the Schneider archive (c.1921-65) document his German and American careers.
Attributed works:

House VI - also known as the Frank House - is the Connecticut residence that Peter Eisenman designed and built between 1972 and 1976.

X. Unexecuted design for the decoration of a wall of the Egyptian Room in the Villa Borghese, Rome, attributed to Tomaso Conca. c.1778-79. Water-colour over graphite, 34 by 49.8 cm. This design was ultimately rejected in favour of a more conservative scheme by Antonio Asprucci. The drawing is one of a large group of preparatory and presentation drawings by Antonio and Mario Asprucci and Tomaso Conca for the redecoration of the Villa Borghese as a museum, commissioned by Prince Marcantonio Borghese in the last quarter of the 18th century.
Attributed works:
XI. Stage set design for Antony and Cleopatra, Act 1, Scene 1, by Joseph Michael Gandy. c.1820. Colour wash over pen and black ink on paper, c.20 by 32 cm. This drawing by the English visionary architect and illustrator Joseph Michael Gandy is from a collection of 125 designs by Gandy for theatre sets and literary publications. Gandy's characteristic interest in speculative archaeological reconstructions is evident here, as well as in another Getty collection of his architectural and decorative drawings.

With this drawing, Hadid proposed a stylised version of Tatlin's Monument for the Third International for the Guggenheim's spiralling central atrium. The 79 Hadid drawings in the collection show the influence of Suprematist and Constructivist works on her architecture.

XXII. Shirt of the Emperor Maximilian, Querétaro, by François Aubert (1829-1906). 1867. Albumen print, 22 by 16.2 cm. Not able to photograph the event itself, the French photographer François Aubert made this image of the bullet-riddled clothing of the Emperor Maximilian after the latter's execution near Querétaro, Mexico in 1867. Aubert's poignant photographs of Maximilian's clothing, embalmed body and the site of the execution were widely published in Europe - galvanising public opinion - and were used, for example, by Manet to create his dramatic painting of the event.

[Seago, 22 Pimlico Road, London, UK] An important early nineteenth century Coade Stone statue of "A Nymph unclasping her zone" otherwise known as "Venus attiring herself after her bath" after a carved marble sculpture by Sir Richard Westmacott (1775-1856) exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1828, and thereafter at Castle Howard, Yorkshire. (Destroyed by fire, 1940). A plaster version of the same sculpture may be seen at Sir John Soane's Museum, Lincoln's Inn Fields, in the Picture Room where it has been since the room's construction (1824-5). The present sculpture is interesting not least because the original marble no longer exists but because it demonstrates a hitherto unknown connection between Westmacott and the Coade Manufactory. English, circa 1825. Height: 4ft 6in Photo: Don Wood
