Fragment of a desert hunt - see 26.3.354-5-related
Object type: relief, tomb of khety
Date: 2051 – 2000
Materials: limestone
Location: egypt
Subjects: animals

Scenes of hunting animals in the desert became a standard part of tomb decoration during the Old Kingdom (see, for example, 08.201.1g, from the Tomb of Raemkai). During the third and into the early second millennium B.C., the Egyptian deserts still had the character of a hilly savannah filled with hardy plants and populated by a multitude of wild animals such as gazelle, antelope, rabbits, hyenas, and the occasional lion or cheetah. Located at the fringes of the floodplain, and thus at the edges of the ordered world, the deserts became symbolic of the chaos that constantly threatened the Egyptian cosmos. By defeating the wild creatures of this liminal area, the king and his elite helped the gods to maintain order over chaos. Only fragments of decoration of Khety's desert hunt (see 26.3.354-5-related) remain, but they provide a glimpse into the lively animal representations seen in a few tombs dating to the beginning of the Middle Kingdom. Long after Khety's tomb was abandoned, the fine white limestone that lined the entrance corridor was broken up and re-purposed. This piece was partially formed, perhaps into a platter, but was discarded before it was completed.

De Amsterdamse uitgever Claes Jansz. Visscher (II) produceerde vanaf de jaren ’30 van de zeventiende eeuw grote Bijbelse prenten op zogenaamd royaal-formaat papier (ca. 480 x 580 mm). Na zijn dood in 1652 zette zijn zoon Nicolaes Visscher (I) het bedrijf voort en zo ook de uitgave van Royaalbijbelprenten. Toen Nicolaes in 1679 overleed nam zijn zoon Nicolaes Visscher (II) het bedrijf over en gaf kort hierna, omstreeks 1680, een fondslijst uit. Hierin worden 130 prenten met Bijbelse voorstellingen op royaalpapier beschreven (zie documentatie J. van der Waals). Complete prentbijbels op royaal-formaat werden door vader en zoon Nicolaes Visscher uitgegeven onder de titel Historiae Sacrae Veteris et Novi Testamenti. De bladen werden echter ook los verkocht en konden worden gecombineerd met Royaalbijbel-prenten van andere uitgevers. Verschillende Amsterdamse uitgevers brachten namelijk ook bijbelprenten op royaal-formaat uit, onder wie Clement de Jonghe en Cornelis Danckerts. De door de firma Visscher uitgegeven prenten zijn veelal vervaardigd door anonieme prentmakers naar voorbeeld van verschillende zestiende- en zeventiende-eeuwse Bijbelse prenten en prentreeksen. Veelal moesten de composities worden aangepast aan het grotere en langgerekte royaal-formaat. Daarnaast zijn er ook grote bladen van bekende prentmakers zoals Jan van Londerseel, Pieter Nolpe, Jacques de Gheyn (II) en Jan Harmensz. Muller opgenomen in de categorie ‘Bybelsche Figuren, op Royaal-bladen’ in de fondslijst van Visscher.

Prent mogelijk gebruikt in: Historiae Sacrae Veteris et Novi Testamenti (Royaalbijbel). Amsterdam: Nicolaes Visscher (I) en (II), [1652-1702].

In de fondslijst van Nicolaes Visscher II (ca. 1680) is het onderwerp van deze prent onder de titel 'Bybelsche Figuren, op Royaal-bladen. bestaande uyt de volgende historien.' als volgt genummerd: 57.
Engaged molding on a polyptych panel
Object type: frame
Date: 1345 – 1345
Materials: gilt, wood
Culture: italian
Artist: siena
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: siena

Philip Lehman acquired this "Saint Peter" and 1975.1.14b,"Saint Mary Magdelene", within two years of each other, in 1916 and 1918. By then, the tops had already been altered and the replacements interpreted in different ways. The triangular gables remian on four other panels from the same polyptych in the Pinacoteca Nazionale, Siena. The "Saint John the Baptist" in Siena, along with the two Lehman panels, formed the right side of the altarpiece, and the Siena "Saint Catherine of Alexandria", "Saint Paul", and "Saint John the Evangelist", the left side. The central panel has not been identified. The seven-lobed lancet arch on this panel and 1975.1.14b, a more complicated design than on 1975.1.10b, creates a sense of depth.The angle of the overhanging cusps describes the perspective of Saint Peter's neck and his keys and book.

Gold Belt Mount (Miscast and Unfinished)
Object type: belt mount
Materials: gold
Culture: avar

The treasure contains an array of belt fittings, some elaborately decorated, some unfinished or defectively cast. Some show no signs of use, while others are quite worn. The Avars The Avars were a nomadic tribe of mounted warriors from the Eurasian steppe. The Byzantine emperor Justinian negotiated with them in the sixth century to protect the Empire’s northern border along the Black Sea. Emboldened by their subjugation of numerous tribes, they unsuccessfully attempted to seize the Empire’s capital, Constantinople. They remained a scourge of both Byzantium and the Western kingdoms until Charlemagne defeated them through a series of campaigns in the 790s and early 800s. All the money and treasure that the Avars had been years amassing was seized, and no war in which the Franks have ever engaged . . . brought them such riches and such booty. Up to that time the Avars had passed for a poor people, but so much gold and silver was found . . . that one may well think that the Franks took justly from the Avars what the Avars had formerly taken unjustly from other nations. — Einhard (ca. 770–840), biographer of the Frankish ruler Charlemagne, early 800s The Vrap Treasure Tribute payments from the Byzantine Empire and war booty provided the Avars with enormous amounts of gold and silver. Avar goldsmiths created work of exceptionally high quality and were counted among the Avars’ ruling class. This ensemble of objects, all found together in Vrap, in present-day Albania, would seem to attest to the wealth of the Avars. Why this varied group was brought together remains a mystery. Some scholars have suggested that these objects were part of a treasure belonging to an Avar chief; others have speculated that they were the materials of an Avar artist. Others question whether an Avar metalsmith made them at all and assert these objects to be the products of a provincial Byzantine artist.

Subjects: human figures

Upon Degas's death in 1917, more than 150 figurative sculptures were found in his studio. Most were made of fragile wax, clay, and plastiline (a wax- and oil-based modeling material). Many had deteriorated. Only a few were preserved in copies that had been cast from them in plaster. Except for the wax Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer (Washington: NGA) none of these sculptures had been publicly exhibited during the artist’s lifetime. Although Degas had not favored reproducing his sculptures in more permanent materials, his heirs authorized that copies be cast in bronze in order to preserve the compositions and to sell them as finished works. Paul-Albert Bartholomé, a sculptor and Degas's longtime friend, prepared 72 of the figures for casting, a process executed by the distinguished Paris foundry A.-A. Hébrard et Cie. The quality of the Degas bronzes was tightly controlled and their edition was limited. Only twenty-two editions of the series of 72 figures were cast. Each bronze within the series was assigned a number from one to seventy-two. The first twenty editions were assigned a letter from A-T. In most cases these numbers and letters were incised on the individual bronzes. The series of 72 bronzes was completed before May 1921 when it was exhibited in Paris. Edition A, comprising the first and best casts of the series, was reserved for the important Impressionist collector Mrs. H. O. Havemeyer. She later acquired the first bronze cast of the Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer (lettered A, but not numbered), which had been omitted from the initial series. In 1929 Mrs. Havemeyer bequeathed Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer and 70 of the 72 Edition A Degas bronzes to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
