Shri Sheshanarayana
Date: 1880 – 1885
Techniques: lithograph
Culture: west bengali

Here we see Vishnu Narayana—the primordial god who resides in water (nara)—stirring from his slumber on the cosmic ocean supported by the divine serpent Shesha, a celebrated moment that simultaneously marks the end of the monsoon season and the beginning of a new age (kalpa). This is one of the five cosmic emanations of the Divine Vishnu, distinct from his celebrated appearances on earth, most famously the ten avatars (Das-avatars). The cosmic snake Shesha coils his body to form a bed for the recumbent Vishnu and his multiple hoods—ten are shown—form a protective canopy. Vishnu, Brahma and Lakshmi are richly dressed in silken robes and wear elaborate pointed crowns. Vishnu is further adorned with strings of large pearls, the treasure of the cosmic ocean over which he presides, the riches of which he shares with the wife, the goddess Lakshmi. Both are depicted as youthful and beautiful. Brahma, seen aloft in the sky seated on a red-lotus bloom, by contrast is shown as an aged and bearded sage, holding the holy books of Brahmanism, the Vedas. As the father of dharma, Brahma created the Vedas through divine thought, laying down the principles governing correct behavior and social order.
Moon flask
Object type: moon flask
Date: 1878 – 1882
Materials: earthenware, gilt
Techniques: glazing, transfer
Artist: henry slater
Artist role: designer

This vase is of the oriental moon-flask form, but with spheroid rather than flattened sides. It is printed on both sides in underglaze blue with Doulton's spray design and overlaid, on one side, with the willow-pattern plate design and, on the other, with a cluster of exotic fruit. These motifs are set asymmetrically upon the surfaces in the Japanese manner of dynamic interplay between occupied and empty space. The blue decoration was transfer printed, and stencils cut with the same patterns were used for the gilt ornament. Around the cylindrical neck we see in gold the same fruit as appear on one side in blue, and the border around the willow-pattern plate design is echoed in gilt on the raised strap that demarcates the boundaries of the two sides. The four feet, although contracted in form, are derived from those of prehistoric Chinese bronzes. The piece has on the bottom a barely legible, impressed mark, apparently for Pinder Bourne and Company of Burslem, Staffordshire. This interesting company exhibited in international exhibitions before it was merged with Doulton's of London in 1878, and this flask is presumably an example of the continuance of some successful Pinder Bourne designs for a period after the merger. The same form in smaller sizes, however, was used from the early 1880s through the early 1890s in the art studios of Doulton's in Lambeth, where it was decorated by such hand painters as Hannah Barlow, Esther Lewis, and Mary Denley. Many of the features of this vase are assembled in a unique manner and never appeared in either Japanese or Chinese arts in exactly the same way. For instance, moon flasks were normally flat sided, with a rectangular base and tall, narrow neck. Our piece is eclectic in form and design and is an expression of the continuing fascination for Japanese art.

Roussel’s Scarab, Grecian Key, and Fly Pattern Mount was printed in different ink color combinations for five of his nine color prints. There were two variants for The Sea at Bognor, with the cartouche, or “scarab”—in opaque white or rose ink; it was printed in green and gold for Last Poppies, and a white and gold variation was used for a small landscape entitled The Thames, Evening. The mount was also produced in shades of red and gold for Chelsea Palaces and in black and gold for Anemonies. The latter is placed on a drawing for the mount with a black printed cartouche. The remaining color subjects were accompanied by Roussel’s Shell Pattern Mount, which was likewise printed in a variety of color combinations.

Deck of Great Eastern, Aft: the Paying-out Machinery
Object type: drawing
Date: 1866 – 1866
Materials: gouache, graphite, watercolor
Artist: robert charles dudley
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1826 – 1909
Subjects: men,ships,transatlantic cable

One of the 19th century's great technological achievements was to lay a telegraphic cable beneath the Atlantic, allowing messages to speed back and forth between North America and Europe in minutes, rather than ten or twelve days by steamer. An initially successful attempt in 1858, led by Cyrus W. Field and financed by the Atlantic Telegraph Company, failed after three weeks. Two working cables were finally laid in July and September 1866, the result of repeated efforts by the indefatigable Field, a cadre of engineers, technicians, and sailors, two groups of financial backers, and significant help from the British and United States navies. Dudley documented the process in a series of watercolors and oils, this example showing the paying out machinery on the deck of the Great Eastern in 1866. In 1892 Field donated art works by Dudley, commemorative medals, memorabilia, and specimens of cable to the Museum.

He is flanked by his attendants, Monju and Fugen, who, respectively, ride a blue lion and white elephant and represent Buddhist wisdom and practice. This holy trio is accompanied by the ten major disciples.Rendered in fine pigments and gold on silk, this workis a testament to the influence of Chinese Buddhist painting of the Song dynasty (960–1279) on medieval Japanese Buddhist painting. The anonymous artist probably modeled his work after an example imported from China.

In 1827, Constable began work on the project that would occupy his attention until his death seven years later: the publication of a series of prints based on his paintings that would stand as a summary of his achievements. The painter collaborated closely with the engraver David Lucas to create prints that would illustrate Constable's didactic intention—to illustrate the "chiaroscuro of nature." The medium of mezzotint, in which the design is developed from dark to light using a wide range of velvety tones, was eminently suited to the project.
Shabti of Sherinefer
Object type: shabti of sherinefer
Date: 1295 – 1186
Materials: stone
Location: egypt

Inscribed for a man named Sherinefer, this funerary figure, known as a shabti, represents the deceased in festival dress. Sherinefer wears a sheer tunic with elbow-length sleeves, an ankle-length pleated kilt with a starched front panel and a fringed waistband, and a two-tiered wig, elaborately curled and braided. On his ears are large round earrings. Sherinefer crosses his wrists over his chest and holds agricultural tools in his hands. A grain basket is slung over one shoulder. An inscription begins on the front of the kilt and continues around the sides and back; this reads: "The illuminated one, Osiris Sherinefer, says: "O you shabti, if Osiris Sherinefer is allotted to do any work that is done in the necropolis, to cultivate fields, to irrigate canal banks, to transport sand (from east to west, 'Here am I,' you shall say)." Part of Spell 6 from a collection of texts known colloquially as the Book of the Dead, this guarantees that the shabti figure will work on Sherinefer’s behalf in the afterlife, which in turn will help to provide him with food for eternity.

The Banquet of Anthony and Cleopatra

Techniques: etching
Artist: jean honoré fragonard
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1732 – 1806
Subjects: cleopatra,men,banquets

This etching is from a group of sixteen made by Fragonard in Paris around 1763-64, based on black chalk drawings he had made in Italy a few years earlier for his friend and patron, the abbé de Saint-Non. Of the sixteen, ten were based on Venetian models, including this one after Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (Italian, 1696-1770). To create the compositon, Fragonard merged excerpts from two adjacent frescoes by Tiepolo in the Palazzo Labia, Venice. From Tiepolo's work, he took the scene of the Banquet of Anthony and Cleopatra, but replaced the architectural backdrop with clouds bearing the figural group of Pluto Abducting Persephone which, in the villa, appears on the ceiling above.

Jean-Louis-André-Théodore Gericault (1791–1824)
Object type: painting
Materials: canvas, oil
Artist: horace vernet
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1789 – 1863
Subjects: men,portraits

In the early 1820s, Parisian critics were hard pressed to decide which young painter held greater promise, Vernet or his close friend—and friendly rival—Gericault. This work shows Gericault as a Romantic artist, a type that had recently come into being based on Lord Byron's example. He is depicted deep in thought and possibly suffering physically as well. It was probably painted when Gericault was stricken with the disease that claimed his life in 1824. In a lithograph made by Vernet in 1823, Gericault wears the same scarf on his head.
