Woods and Valleys of Mount Yu
Object type: hanging scroll
Materials: ink, paper
Culture: chinese
Artist: ni zan
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: chinese
Artist dates: 1306 – 1374
Subjects: mountains,landscapes

In 1366, Ni Zan abandoned his home to escape marauding soldiers. Even after the establishment of the Ming dynasty in 1368, Ni continued the life of a wanderer, visiting old haunts that he had not seen for twenty or thirty years. According to his epitaph writer, Zhou Nanlao (1308–1383), "in his late years, he became quieter and more withdrawn than ever. Having lost or given away everything he ever owned, he did his best to forget his worries. Wearing a yellow [Daoist] cap and country clothes, he roamed the lakes and mountains, leading a recluse's life." Woods and Valleys of Mount Yu, executed two years before Ni Zan's death, expresses the painter's contentment in the life of a recluse. The poem ends with the lines: We watch the clouds and daub with our brushes We drink wine and write poems. The joyous feelings of this day Will linger long after we have parted. The dry but tender brushwork is aloof and restrained. There is a tranquil luminous quality about the painting that makes it one of the most fully realized works of the artist's later years.

Vinaigrette
Object type: vinaigrette
Date: 1799 – 1799
Materials: silver
Artist: samuel pemberton
Artist role: maker
Artist dates: 1750 – 1850

The partially struck maker’s mark found on the box may be the one used by Samuel Pemberton. At least three generations of Samuel Pembertons worked as jewelers and silversmiths in Birmingham in the 18th and 19th centuries, either fathers and sons or extended family. The second lived from 1738 to 1804, and the third from 1771 to 1836: either of these may have made this vinaigrette.(The second Samuel Pemberton was one of the main toymakers mounting jasper intaglios for Josiah Wedgwood and Thomas Bentley.) From the mid-1770s until at least the 1820s, the Samuel Pemberton workshops were on Snow Hill, the heart of the jewelry and toy-making district. Bright-cut foliate engraving and wrigglework typified much of their boxes and vinaigrettes as seen here, while the grill is dot-punched and elaborated into floral designs. A vinaigrette was intended to hold a tiny sponge dipped in aromatic vinegar. Its interior is gilded to protect the silver from oxidation caused by the acidity of the vinegar. A hinged and decoratively pierced inner lid or grill kept the sponge in place while its perforations allowed the odor to waft through. A whiff of the vinegar might revive someone from a fainting spell. Such vinaigrettes were worn around the neck, on a chatelaine suspended from the waist, or carried in a pocket. Frequently, the decoration left a reserve for the addition of initials or a name to personalize. Here, the initials AK likely indicate the original owner.

Sketch for 'Dido on the Funeral Pyre' (recto); Erotic Sketch of Man and Woman (verso)
Object type: drawing and watercolor
Date: 1781 – 1781
Materials: chalk, charcoal, paper, oil
Location: england
Artist: henry fuseli
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: swiss
Artist dates: 1741 – 1825

Dido, Queen of Carthage, was deserted by her lover Aeneas, a prince of Troy and a hero of the Trojan War. Devastated, she built a pyre to burn his possessions. Upon ascending the pyre and lamenting her cruel fate, Dido took her life with the sword she had given to Aeneas.
In this preparatory sketch for a painting, Fuseli hews closely to the story as recounted in the ancient Roman poet Virgil’s epic poem about Rome’s founding, the Aeneid. Dido’s sister Anna weeps at the dead queen’s feet, while Iris, sent by Juno, cuts a lock of her hair to free her soul from her body.
Buckle and Plate

Panel with an Ivory Crucifixion Scene
Object type: panel
Date: 1067 – 1100
Materials: enamel, glass, ivory, wood, silver gilt, stone
Techniques: enamel, filigree, gilding
Culture: spanish
Location: spain
Subjects: christ,virgin mary,crucifixion,saints

This panel originally may have served as the sumptuous cover of a sacred book. Incorporating a variety of costly materials and refined artistic techniques, it represents the kind of luxurious multimedia work much prized by medieval people. While many of the stone, glass, and enamel ornaments that once embellished the frame have been lost, the central Crucifixion scene survives mostly intact, comprising individually-carved ivory figures set against a gilded silver backing dominated by the cross. Jesus, the largest and most volumetric figure, is flanked by his mother Mary and Saint John the Evangelist. Additionally, two anonymous mourning figures hover over the cross, occupying spaces typically designated for the sun and moon or pairs of angels. Short inscriptions hammered from the back of the metal surface provide the abbreviated name of Jesus of Nazareth at the top of the cross and, at the base, the words "Felicia Regina." The plaque thus names the likely commissioner of this work, Queen Felicia of Aragon and Pamplona (part of modern-day northern Spain). Queen Felicia, who reigned during the late eleventh century, may have had the panel made together with a closely related companion piece also in the Met’s collection (17.190.134), gifting both to the convent of Santa Cruz de la Serós. The convent, located near the Aragonese capital of Jaca, had close ties to the royal family and welcomed many female members of the family into its community. The wooden core supporting the metalwork sheath seems to be a post-medieval replacement.

Portable horizontal sundial
Object type: sundial
Materials: silver
Artist: jacques lucas
Artist role: maker
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1660 – 1721
Subjects: birds

Octagonal in shape, this small silver pocket sundial and recessed compass would have been carried in a protective case and would allow the owner to keep time while traveling and to set his clock or watch accordingly. The front plate of the dial is engraved with three-hour scales in Roman and Arabic numerals serving different latitudes. The hinged pointer or gnomon, which could be adjusted for the desired latitude (indicated by the bird’s beak on the pointer), would cast a shadow on the calibrated surface indicating the time. The reverse records the latitudes of 22 European cities and indicates the name of the maker: Ja[c]ques Lucas from La Rochelle who left France and settled in Amsterdam in about 1681 where he died in 1723. These small horizontal dials are known as Butterfield dials for an English instrument maker Michael Butterfield (1635–1724) who worked in Paris from circa 1778 on where he dominated the market with such small traveling sundials. However, the type was known before he manufactured them and was also made by others.
