Achilles (Greek mythology)
Description: The centaur Chiron teaches the young Achilles to shoot with a bow and arrow, based on a painting in the royal collection that became part of the public museum of the Louvre after the French Revolution. Reproductive prints were intended to broaden access to these artworks, part of an organized effort to "engrave the museum" after the royal collections were nationalized.

Description: Trimmed at the plate mark. Guido Reni's four paintings of the Labors of Hercules, once part of the collection of England's King Charles I, were purchased by the French King Louis XIV in 1662 and engraved by Rousselet in 1669-1670. The copper plates survive in the Chalcography of the Louvre. This impression probably was made in the 18th century.

Description: This is a precision clock associated with Andrew Ellicott. Ellicott became Surveyor General of the United States in 1792 and completed critical national astronomical surveys—most notably the boundaries for the District of Columbia in 1791-92 and the border between the United States and Spanish Florida in 1800.
The clock’s original case and seat board for the movement have not survived. The square iron dial is marked “Ellicott/Baltimore.” It was originally painted white, with added painted floral spandrels. It has Roman hour numerals, Arabic minute numerals and separate seconds in Arabic numerals under 12. Andrew Ellicott or his father Joseph Ellicott made the brass time-only, weight-driven movement sometime before about 1790. The younger Ellicott made and attached the gridiron temperature-compensating pendulum, which he described as the first ever made in the United States, in a letter to Thomas Jefferson on 6 March 1803.
Astronomers and surveyors used precision clocks like this one to observe the time that specific "clock stars" passed overhead. With a transit, a special kind telescope for observing stars, they noted the instant the star passed the local line of longitude.

Description: This much-used bible belonged to Delaware farmer Stokely Sturgis, who converted to the growing Methodist movement through the influence of an enslaved man named Richard Allen. Moved by Methodism’s indictment of slaveholding, Sturgis agreed to sell Allen his freedom. Allen became a preacher and moved to Philadelphia. He founded the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church there in 1794.
