Henri-Paul Nénot
Henri-Paul Nénot (born May 27, 1853 in Paris ; † December 13, 1934 there ) was a French architect and winner of the Prix de Rome .
Life
After training in the architecture offices of Paul-Eugène Lequeux , Charles-Auguste Questel at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris and his successor Jean-Louis Pascal , Nenot worked in parallel in various offices, including Charles Garnier , who supported him at the beginning. As early as 1877 he won the "Prix de Rome" with a design for an athena for a capital city, meeting rooms, library and greenhouse were required. The award was linked to a scholarship and a research stay in Rome of several years . Nénot spent this from January 28, 1878 to December 31, 1881 in the Villa Medici . As a result, he became self-employed as an architect and designed numerous important buildings and palaces, residential buildings and administrative buildings. His most important early work was the reconstruction of the Sorbonne from 1882 to 1901.
In 1882 he won first prize in the competition for the construction of the Monumento a Vittorio Emanuele II in Rome , but it was ultimately realized according to a design by the Italian Giuseppe Sacconi . The Palais des Nations of the League of Nations in Geneva can be regarded as his main work . He had also emerged from the previous architectural competition as the winner of the First Prize. After placing the order for execution, he took over the management of the project, which was carried out in collaboration with Julien Flegenheimer . In 1895 he was elected fifth chairman of the architecture department at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
