Two of Goya’s most instantly recognizable types appear in this scene, in which a young maja, her eyes downcast, holds an open fan and attentively listens to an elderly, veiled woman, probably a bawd, or madam. The details make clear that the elder is instructing her junior how to attract attention or entice a wealthy suitor. Nineteenth-century writers referred to the questionable nature of the bawd’s teachings and proposed that the two might be mother and daughter, suggesting that Goya was criticizing mercenary women for corrupting their own children. Goya’s working methods are revealed in this proof impression, as he retouched the print with ink around the younger woman’s eyes before reworking the copperplate.

Funerary Papyrus of the Steward Sethnakht
Object type: papyrus, sethnakht, funerary
Date: 1320 – 1200
Materials: ink, papyrus, pigment
Location: egypt

This papyrus was prepared for the Tax Master and Steward Sethnakht. It reads from right to left and contains 3 large and 41 smaller vignettes. The text is divided into vertical sections by double lines. Each section encloses a vignette and its accompanying text. The three lines above each vignette name the deity depicted and ask for a specific boon on behalf of Sethnakht. The three columns below relate that in exchange for the boon Sethnakht has made an offering on earth to the deity. The long fourth column which follows each vignette contains miscellaneous material from various sources that was intended largely as a space-filler. At the extreme right, in the first section of the papyrus, Sethnakhte kneels in adoration of the symbol of the West, on which a falcon is perched. He is joined in worship by several registers of minor deities and sacred baboons. To the left Sethnakhte adores Osiris flanked by Nephthys (on the left) and Isis (on the right). The accompanying text is composed of epithets and praises of Osiris. The final vignette of the papyrus, at the extreme left, depicts the Steward Sethnakhte standing before a falcon-headed form of Osiris-Wennefer-Khentyamentiu in a shrine topped with a frieze of uraei and feathers of truth. He raises one hand in adoration of the god and with the other steadies a small image of Maat, the personification of truth, on his shoulder. The primary text on this papyrus is reflects the longer version of a composition that has been numbered as Chapter 168 of the Book of Coming Forth by Day, also called the "Chapter of Offerings" or the "Liturgy of Offerings to Cavern-gods." However, this text is usually found alone, rather than with other Coming Forth by Day spells, and is now considered by most scholars to be a separate text.

Partial View of a Building [Palatium Claudie] from the series 'Ruinarum variarum fabricarum delineationes pictoribus caeterisque id genus artificibus multum utiles'

Artist: lambert suavius
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: netherlandish
Artist dates: 1510 – 1576
Subjects: architecture,buildings

Perspectival view of the leftt side of a building described as the palace of Emperor Claudius. The building consists of three stories crowned by a balustrade and three bays of what is likely a five-bay façade have been depicted. The bay on the right (the central bay of the façade) shows the entrance way, marked by an avant-corpse with its own attica and a pediment. It is not clear whether this rendition is based on a specific building in Rome, or whether the printmaker is relying on his imagination based on a description of the palace in an historic source. This print and several others in this series published by Gerard de Jode were copied after a group of Italian architectural prints, previously attriputed to the Master G. A. with the Caltrop, and first published in Rome between 1530 and 1550. The prints depict buildings from Roman Antiquity, ranging from triumphal arches to bath houses, temples and palaces in Italy, France and Spain. Some of the buildings have been artificially reconstructed based on Medieval descriptions, while others are depicted in their ruinous states.
