        History

        Charles Jewett Saxe (1870-1943) and John Smith Archibald (1872-1934) were co-workers at the architectural firm of Edward Maxwell (1867-1923). For a biography of Archibald see CAC 4, for a biography of Saxe see CAC 4.04. In 1897 Saxe and Archibald left Maxwell's employ to set up a partnership that was to last until 1915. Together they executed a number of designs for domestic architecture, as well as the Montefiore Club (1907), the Emmanuel Congregational Church (1906) and the Ecole Technique de Montreal (1909-11). Three of Saxe and Archibald's projects are documented by architectural drawings in the CAC archives.

        For a more complete view of Saxe's practice the Charles Jewett Saxe Fonds, CAC 4.04 and Saxe and Miller Fonds, CAC 48 should also be consulted.

        Charles Jewett Saxe (l870-1943) et John Smith Archibald (1872-1934) ont travaillé ensemble au cabinet d'architecture d'Edward Maxwell (1867-1923). Pour une biographie d'Archibald, voir CAC 4, pour une biographie de Saxe, voir CAC 4.04. En 1897, Saxe et Archibald ont quitté le cabinet de Maxwell pour former une association qui allait se maintenir jusqu'en 1914. Ensemble, ils ont dessiné plusieurs projets d'architecture domestique de même que le club Montefiore (1907), l'Emmanuel Congregational Church (1906) et l'École technique de Montréal (1909-1911). Trois des projets de Saxe et Archibald sont documentés par des dessins architecturaux déposés au fonds de la CAC.
