Ewer with Engraved Fish Scale Pattern, Inscribed in Persian with the name "Khairullah"
Object type: decorative art
Date: 1701 – 1733
Materials: brass
Techniques: repoussé
Location: india
Inscriptions: Inscription in Persian on the body of the vessel contains the name “Khairullah.” Could possibly have been an early owner of the vessel.

The Sultans of the Deccan (r. 1347-1636) in South India combined the Persian aesthetic with the Indic to forge a new Indo-Islamic idiom. In this ewer, we see the confrontation of the Indic preference for a sensuous fullness of volume, weight, balance, and a naturalistic silhouette (representing shapes such as gourds, mangoes, fruits, and birds) with the Islamic preference for the abstract, ethereal, and attenuated silhouette from Iran. The Indic aspect of this Indo-Islamic vessel is evident in the voluptuous, bottom-heavy, pear-shaped belly on raised on a pedestal foot, rising to a tall slender neck with a disk or “bulge” in the center, to a dome shaped top. The curvaceous handle echoes the rounded belly, while the spout, with a chased band of chevron, rises in a gentle S-curve to a lotiform mouth. A fully opened lotus surrounds the base of the spout. It is chased in a repoussé fish-scale motif, a naturalistic trait which at first blush would signify its Indian origin, but which may be a motif imported from Turkey, as seen in Iznik ceramics of the late 16th century. It is inscribed with the Persian name “Khairullah,” probably the owner’s name. Inscriptions indicate that the object was valued.

Fragment of a Processional Standard ('Alam)
Object type: standard
Date: 1567 – 1600
Materials: brass
Techniques: relief
Location: india

Although it has lost its surrounding edge and crest of splayed finials, the heart of this monumental ‘alam still remains. Pious inscriptions in thuluth relief and mirrored arrangements provide the beginning of a prayer for Shi’a imams, and mention names of the Prophet Muhammad and his family. Delicately pierced designs allow pinpricks of light to decorate the surface of the standard and also its shadow.
Street in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
Object type: drawing
Materials: chalk, graphite, ink, paper
Techniques: pen
Artist: vincent van gogh
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: dutch
Artist dates: 1853 – 1890
Subjects: houses,roofs

In the summer of 1888, Van Gogh, who was then living in Arles, made a trip to the small Mediterranean fishing village of Saintes-Maries de la Mer, where he made a painted view of this street with its thatched roofs and smoking chimneys. This drawing was one of fifteen that were sent, in the month of July alone, to Van Gogh's friend, the artist Émile Bernard, in Brittany, to keep Bernard up to date on the work he was doing. In these vibrant drawings, Van Gogh captured the essence of the paintings while creating the compositions anew in a different medium.
Lace
Object type: lace
Date: 1720 – 1740

This is an exquisitely crafted lace cravat end. Lace was often utilized as neckwear in the 17th and 18th centuries for aesthetic purposes and to emphasize the fine quality the wearer could afford. This refined example contains an exceptional level of detail in an obviously musically themed article. Music in this period was a common form of entertainment and utilizing it as a theme for an article of clothing is sensible and elegant.

The Capture of Samson
Object type: painting
Date: 1609 – 1610
Materials: oil, panel
Techniques: painting
Location: belgium
Artist: peter paul rubens
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: flemish
Artist dates: 1577 – 1640
Subjects: biblical, figures, interior, man, men, violence, woman, women

This panel, made as a sketch for a larger painting commissioned by the mayor of Antwerp, Nicolas Rockox, demonstrates the influence of the ancient and modern art Peter Paul Rubens studied in Italy. The subject comes from a story in the Hebrew Bible in which the mighty Samson awakes to find that his lover, Delilah, has cut off his hair, the source of his strength. Rubens drew from ancient Roman sculpture for Samson’s contorted pose as he is captured by soldiers, while the strong contrast of light and dark recalls the work of 16th-century Italian painter Tintoretto—for example, Tarquin and Lucretia.

The scene on this plate is based on a print begun by the skilled Parisian engraver Pierre Milan and finished several years later by an assistant to Milan, René Boyvin. The original composition is after a fresco by Rosso Fiorentino ("Il Rosso"). The subject refers to the origin of the name of Fontainebleau: a thirsty hunting dog named Bleau separated from its master and found in the forest a clear, pure spring; his master, "one of our kings," named the spring after him "la Fontaine de Bleau." The image of Diana, Nymph of Fontainbleau, enjoyed great popularity: the Museum has two other versions of this composition, notably a copy of the engraving in the Department of Drawings and Prints (32.105), and an oil on wood painting in the Department of European Paintings (42.105.12).
Parlor from the William Moore House
Object type: parlor
Date: 1811 – 1811
Materials: wood
Culture: american
Location: united states

This parlor was taken from a house built in Petersburg, Virginia in 1811 for William Moore, an Irish-born pharmacist, but prominently displays furniture made in New York City. Many pieces once belonged to the noted early-twentieth-century collector Bertha King Benkard and were donated to the Museum after her death. In 1980, the Museum renamed this room in her honor. Like the American Wing's Baltimore and Haverhill Rooms (18.101.1 and 12.121, respectively), the Benkard Room exemplifies the popularity of Robert and James Adam’s neoclassical taste in the young United States. Each of the Moore House’s two floors had a center hall with a room on either side. The Museum’s interior was taken from the parlor, which originally had windows on the fireplace wall and the two adjacent walls.
