Telling Pierre of Ivry
Pierre Telling of Ivry is an architect and French decorator born with Ivry-sur-Seine the May 11th 1698 and died in Paris on October 1st 1777.
Architect of the King, Telling Pierre of Ivry worked primarily for the Crown and customers of high ranking. He had the title of architect of the Prince de Conti between 1737 and 1749 before becoming, in 1750, architect of the Duc of Orleans . For, Louis Philippe of Orleans (1725-1785), it transformed the Palais Royal into 1754. The building, very admired, was published by Diderot and D' Alembert in the Encyclopédie as of 1762.
In 1757, it gave a project for the news church of the Madeleine, inspired of the project of Jacques-Germain Soufflot for the church Holy-Genevieve, whose first stone was posed by Louis XV in 1763 and who was formally approved the following year. But the death of the architect in 1777, whereas only the foundations had been dug, resulted in modifying the initial party completely.
Its work is a hyphen between the Rocaille and the Néoclassicisme.
