The second folder, which has the date 1907 on it, is marked as containing kraft. 2012 exhibit text: Bar Harbor High School Bar Harbor, ME, 1907 Ink on linen The Gerrish Collection, MDI Historical Society Savage's exacting sketch elevations are interesting. His early studies flirt with a rather more flamboyant expression, but he finally gravitates to the more traditional composition This classical design for the town's High School is very similar to the design of many local schools throughout the nation in the early 20th century. The health and educational reform principles of adequate light and ventilation are clearly incorporated with ample windows in each room. The elements of design are typical for this type of Colonial revival composition. A rusticated base is topped with a solid and strong masonry brick Facade. It is further punctuated with groupings of large windows all painted a light color. This composition is capped with a strong projecting cornice.

Description: 2012 exhibit text: Skyview Cottage for Lawrence Lewis Northeast Harbor, ME, 1900-02 Pencil on tracing paper The Gerrish Collection, Northeast Harbor Library These studies show an interest by Savage in manipulating the typical Shingle style elements of dormers, turrets, and porches. He merges these forms in this design to develop a simple, pleasing and romantic shingled mass. This detail of Skyview shows Savage's overlay of structural wood framing to describe his concept to a contractor. Most likely he worked out framing detail with the contractor, who no doubt brought his experience to what was a collaborative exchange. [show more] | ||
