The Prix de Rome (pronounced [pʁi də ʁɔm]) or Grand Prix de Rome was a French scholarship for arts students, initially for painters and sculptors, that was established in 1663 during the reign of Louis XIV of France. Winners were awarded a bursary that allowed them to stay in Rome for three to five years at the expense of the state. The prize was extended to architecture in 1720, music in 1803, and engraving in 1804. The prestigious award was abolished in 1968 by André Malraux, the Minister of Culture, following the May 68 riots.

    Fitting instructions required

    Hi, I have bought an Ideal Standard unit to go under a new sink. The unit is a E3309GA, Full Pedestal Unit in Oak. It came ready built but without further instructions. Does anyone know how I fit the inlet pipes through the back of the unit. Do I need to drill holes in them? Many thanks.

    Spare spindles?

    Is it possible to buy tap spindles separately instead of changing the whole tap? Went to a job this morning where the tap looked fine, but the (non-rising) spindle was somewhat damaged. I'd have liked to change just that instead of the whole tap. A quick search has yielded nothing yet, but...
