Sketches of Birds and Animals

Artist: kawanabe kyōsai 河鍋暁斎
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: japanese

Subjects: birds,deer,foxes,tigers

After training in the academic Kano school tradition, Kyōsai became an independent painter in Edo (today's Tokyo) during the final years of the Tokugawa shogunate. A prolific painter and teacher, he became well known outside Japan through his prominence at the international expositions in Vienna in 1873 and Paris in 1883. These charming, quickly rendered sketches were probably done as models for his students. They reveal the animated brushwork and sure command of form through line that characterize his painting.

Shooting the Rapids, Saguenay River
Object type: painting
Date: 1905 – 1910
Materials: canvas, chalk, oil
Culture: american
Artist: winslow homer
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1836 – 1910
Subjects: men,rivers,boats

Homer family tradition recalls that this painting—left unfinished in the artist’s studio after his death in 1910—was inspired by a particularly perilous excursion down the rapids of the Saguenay River in remote Quebec. The frightened passenger, seen gripping the sides of the canoe, is Homer’s older brother, Charles, who was his frequent companion on fishing trips. Of the many images of men in boats painted across his career, it seems fitting that the last one remains in a liminal state, preserving the sense of imminent danger and unknown outcomes in a fraught encounter with nature. Homer’s family considered the painting complete in its essential details and donated it to The Met in 1911.
Statue of Deified Amenhotep I
Object type: facsimile, panehsy tt 16, amenhotep i, palanquin, sphinx
Materials: paper, paint
Location: egypt
Artist: nina de garis davies
Artist role: artist
Artist dates: 1881 – 1965
Subjects: drink-and-be-merry

Each year several commemorative festivals were held in the artisans’ village of Deir el-Medina in celebration of its founder, the deified king Amenhotep I. Here, the horizontal beams indicate that his elaborate statue sits on top of a palanquin, which was used during processions. The palanquin features the protective figures of a goddess with outstretched wings, a striding sphinx wearing the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt, a so called ba-bird, and a striding lion. Even though the context of this scene does not necessarily derive from an actual festival, it illustrates the type of statues carried during such events. The tall bouquet of flowers at right was presented as an offering. Such bouquets can often be seen in depictions of celebrations or offering scenes. In addition to the flowers’ decorative qualities and pleasing scent, they had symbolic value, since their name, ankh, is also the word for life.

Artist: Anonymous
Subjects: coat of arms (as symbol of the state, etc.), fleur-de-lis ~ ornament, france
Inscriptions: date: ‘1665’

Westerwald stoneware is recognizable by its decoration of cobalt blue on grey. Unusual features of this bottle are the fleurs-de-lys and the dark violet in the coat of arms. This colour, derived from added manganic oxide, first came into use during the mid-17th century. The lily motifs around the arms of France on the body suggest that the bottle was made for the French market.

After the turbulent years of the French Revolution, in 1797 a fashion magazine was finally published again: the Journal des Dames et des Modes. Under the direction of Pierre de La Mésangère, it developed a cosmopolitan flair. The very best draughtsmen were recruited to produce the fashion illustrations, called Costumes Parisiens. They visited spots all over Paris to ensure they saw the latest styles. These included high-waisted gowns with low necklines, ‘Greek’ slippers with cross-laces 1, genuine Kashmiri shawls 2, reticules 3 (small stylish handbags), poke bonnets 4 and full-length English coats knowns as redingotes 5.

This tender scene depicts the Holy Family resting, while an angel picks fruit from a tree for the Virgin. The elegance of the twisting, attenuated figures reflects the influence of Biscaino's teacher, Valerio Gastello, but it also recalls the Mannerist etching style of Parmigianino.

Reliquary in the Shape of a Stupa

The stupa sits atop a Corinthian capital bracketed by four felines with wings and beaks. Its elaborate form suggests it was placed in a shrine where it was seen rather than enclosed in a solid masonry stupa. A similar masonry stupa in a monastic cell at the site of Kalawan attests to veneration of this stupa type in the late Gandharan tradition.

Brewster & Company History Established in 1810 by James Brewster (1788–1866) in New Haven, Connecticut, Brewster & Company, specialized in the manufacture of fine carriages. The founder opened a New York showroom in 1827 at 53-54 Broad Street, and the company flourished under generations of family leadership. Expansion necessitated moves around lower Manhattan, with name changes reflecting shifts of management–James Brewster & Sons operated at 25 Canal Street, James Brewster Sons at 396 Broadway, and Brewster of Broome Street was based at 372 & 374 Broome Street with a repository (showroom) on 14th Street & Fifth Avenue. By 1874, Brewster & Company had 400 employees and combined warehouse and factory facilities at 47th & 48th Streets and Broadway. Brewster successfully branched out to produce their own automobiles, as well as supplying bodies for Rolls Royce at their Long Island City location. Notable clientele included Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, August Belmont, J.P. Morgan, John Jacob Astor, Andrew J. Cassatt (brother of artist Mary Cassatt), William Rockefeller, Henry Clay Frick and Pierre Lorillard. Talented draftsmen employed by the firm included Paul Steinbeck, Herman Stahmer and John Gribbon, the latter teaching at the Carriage Builders and Designers Technical School, which opened in 1880 and was housed initially at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. When the company finally dissolved in 1923, its last owner William Brewster (1866–1949) donated its archive of design and presentation drawings to the Museum where he served as benefactor and trustee. Of all American carriage manufacturers, none was as highly regarded for design, finish and quality as Brewster & Company. They won many awards for outstanding workmanship, including the Legion d’Honneur (Legion of Honor) at the 1878 Paris Exposition (3rd World’s Fair). In appreciation for this achievement the Carriage Builders’ National Association presented them with a gold enameled Tiffany & Company plaque and autograph book signed by leading American carriage builders, both now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Poem on Promulgating the Almanac at New Year’s
Object type: hanging scroll mounted a panel
Materials: ink, panel, paper
Culture: chinese
Artist: wen peng
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: chinese
Artist dates: 1498 – 1573
Subjects: poetry,calligraphy

On this large piece of brownish paper, Wen Peng, an eminent painter, calligrapher, and seal carver of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), transcribed a poem in running-cursive script in five columns. The poem reads, The time–announcer waits for daybreak by the imperial hall. The elegant palace where multitudes of officials gather exudes fresh grandeur. At the turn of the year, I feel ashamed for passing the time doing nothing. The issuing of calendar, appropriate for spring, happens to take place on a spring day. The twilight of dawn initiates the path of the sun, As if the smoke from incense burners were spreading over the royal court. The promulgation of the almanac has always been a significant event. What an honor that the profound grace reaches even a humble official! Wen Peng 龍樓候曉報鷄人， 玉殿千官氣象新。 改歲自慚虛過日， 授時春得又逢春。 熹微曙色開黃道， 髣髴鑪煙散紫宸。 頒朔從來傳盛事， 覃恩何幸及微臣。 文彭 The text is followed by three artist’s seals: “Wen Peng zhi yin” (文彭之印), “Wen shi Shoucheng” (文氏壽承), and “Guozi xiansheng” (國子先生). The poem describes the ritual of issuing the coming year’s almanac presided by the emperor, which took place at court at the beginning of the year during Wen Peng’s time. Wen served as Erudite of the Directorate of Education (Guozijian boshi) in Nanjing, the secondary capital. Although he was nominally affiliated with the same institution in Beijing, there is no record of his taking office in the capital. This poem could be inspired by a similar ceremony held in Nanjing which he witnessed, or an exercise in the conventional genre of court poetry. Composed probably on an occasion associated with the ceremony, the poem reveals how Wen embraced his identity as a court official.
