Design for The Cenotaph
Voting period ends on 16 Jun 2022  at 04:09:01 (UTC)
 * Reason:A nice bit of design work. I think I can fairly firmly say this was the final form, given this illustration of the Cenotaph, published in the Illustrated London News November 13 1920, page 769, states it's based on Lutyen's design work, and follows the flag folding (They're cloth flags, so are drawn differently in different sketches) exactly. Given that was published two days after the unveiling, we can be confident this was the final design.

As for restoration, I've tried to be conservative, largely trying to remove stains on the paper.

 * Support Does look like it was the final design drawing (not a sketch) apart from the thing on the top (a weather vane?) Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:25, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I think that's just the line of symmetry (C.L.= Centre Line?). Could be wrong. In any case, the same letters and line appears at the bottom, so I don't think it's a design element. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.9% of all FPs 09:00, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment – Yes, the CL notation is typical of architectural drawings from that period. ProfDEH (talk) 19:05, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Support. Interesting and encyclopedic, even without the bonus historical value as an original drawing by the architect. Nicely restored. We could use more like this. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:34, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
