Just discovered this in the guide from 1876.
“Here also is a fine model of St. Peters’ at Rome, by Francis Drake [!](1845), scale nearly 100th. It was presented to the Crystal Palace Company by the Rev. Lord Saye and Sele."
[Frederick Benjamin Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes, 16th Baron Saye and Sele (1799-1887) Archdeacon of Hereford from 1863., An ancestor of Ralph Fiennes.]
The other models were by August Emil Braun 1809 - 1856.
