Winter Landscape
Object type: painting
Date: 1835 – 1838
Materials: canvas, oil
Artist: barend cornelis koekkoek
Artist role: draughtsman, painter, print maker
Artist dates: 1803 – 1862
Subjects: sleigh, sledge (non-sport), winter landscape; landscape symbolizing winter (the four seasons of the year), snow, farm or solitary house in landscape
Inscriptions: signature: ‘B.C. Koekkoek f’

For this winter landscape, Koekkoek chose a hilly region in Gelderland or the German region of the Lower Rhine. Unlike his imposing forest views, this is a peaceful scene, with men pausing beside a sled laden with brushwood and vegetables. A panorama stretches out through the mist in the distance. The painting shows tranquil view of nature on a winter’s day, a world blanketed in a layer of pristine snow.

Subjects: portraits,women

Born into a distinguished family of scientists and statisticians, Bertillon began his career as a clerk in the Identification Bureau of the Paris Prefecture of Police in 1879. Tasked with maintaining reliable police records of offenders, he developed the first modern system of police identification. The system, which became known as Bertillonage, had three components: anthropometric measurement, precise verbal description of the prisoner’s physical characteristics, and standardized photographs of the face. In the early 1890s Paris was subject to a wave of bombings and assassination attempts carried out by anarchist proponents of "propaganda of the deed." One of Bertillon’s greatest successes came in March 1892, when his system of identification led to the arrest of an anarchist bomber who went by the name Ravachol (2005.100.375.348). The publicity surrounding the case earned Bertillon the Legion of Honor and encouraged police departments around the world to adopt his anthropometric system.

The Meissen figure by Kändler (1974.232.1) served as a model for that made in the Ginori factory (1974.28.116). It is fascinating to observe some of the differences that exist between the German hard-paste figure with its admirable sharpness of modeling, and the Italian statuette with colors that sink into the soft-paste like footsteps in driven snow. One might also compare the plain base of the earlier model with the ornate rocaille base of the latter.
