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.

Tile Panel
Object type: tile panel
Date: 1601 – 1633
Materials: stonepaste
Techniques: painting, polychrome, underglaze
Location: turkey
Subjects: flowers

These tiles contain the dominant red sometimes called sealing-wax red because of its application in relief. Islamic potters had not achieved this clear, durable, underglaze red until the Iznik potters' discovery in the mid-sixteenth century. The color is actually derived from a slip of clay with a high iron content, which is held tightly to the ceramic surface by the thin even glaze. Tiles became the major product of Turkish kilns during the second half of the sixteenth century.

Glass beaker signed by Neikais
Object type: beaker, fragmentary, signed by neikais.
Date: 34 – 66
Materials: glass
Culture: roman, syro-palestinian

Translucent light green. Outsplayed knocked-off rim with indent below; body with convex sides, tapering downwards; flat bottom with projecting rounded edge. Three-part mold with two vertical sections joined to cup-shaped bottom section, forming decoration in relief on sides; two horizontal ridges above central frieze containing two Greek inscriptions, each in two lines and divided vertically by a stylized palm frond; below frieze, three more horizontal ridges; near bottom on cup section of mold, two more horizontal ridges. Broken and repaired, with approximately one-third missing including most of bottom; blowing striations but few bubbles; dulling and brilliant iridescent weathering on exterior, and patches of creamy brown weathering and iridescence on interior. The inscriptions read "Neikais made (me/it)" on one side and "May the buyer be remembered" on the other. Only four other beakers signed by Neikais are known. One of these is a fragment excavated at Masada in the Jewish zealot stronghold that was besieged and finally captured by the Romans in A.D. 73/4. Neikais is a rarely found variant of the Greek name Nikias or Nikaios and could be used for women as well as men. It has therefore been suggested that Neikais should be identified as the earliest known female glassblower.

The Great Executioner with the Head of Saint John the Baptist
Object type: print

Prince Rupert of the Rhine’s The Great Executioner is the most ambitious and beautiful mezzotint produced during the seventeenth century. This luscious impression shows the work in all its glory. The deepest tones are rich and velvety. The energetic sweeping marks of the rocker employed to initially darken the copper plate show the rough, experimental nature of the mezzotint technique in its early stages. The print reproduces a painting (now in the Alte Pinakothek, Munich) considered at the time to be by Ribera but now thought to be by an artist in his circle. This impression has an illustrious provenance beginning with the Parisian print dealer Pierre Mariette II who inscribed his name and the date on the verso only six years after the print was created. Prince Rupert’s biography is a story made for the movies. He was the third son of the Elector of Palatine Frederick V and Elizabeth Stuart, the eldest daughter of James I of England and grew up in courts of The Hague and London. At the age of 14, he was already fighting the Spanish in the Netherlands. He joined the Royalist army during the Civil War in England. He was exiled under Cromwell during which time he fought against Spain on the side of the French then he became a Royalist corsair in the Caribbean. After the Restoration he returned to England where he became a high commander of the Navy and was finally appointed the first governor of the Hudson Bay Company in Canada. It was during his exile from England, while living in Frankfurt, that Prince Rupert created his mezzotints. Mezzotint is a technique of subtraction, working from dark to light. The printing plate is first roughened all over to achieve a rich, velvety tone and then the image is created by polishing, also known as scraping, the areas of light. Prince Rupert was one of the very first practitioners of the technique. In fact, he invented the “rocker,” the tool used to roughen the plate. He learned the technique just prior to creating this print from its inventor, the amateur artist Ludwig von Siegen, whose early form of mezzotint created works from light to dark. Prince Rupert’s rocker allowed a large copper plate like the one used to produce this print to be roughened overall and, as a result, he created the mezzotint technique as we have come to define it, one that works from dark to light,. Prince Rupert introduced the technique to England by teaching it to John Evelyn who published a description along with a print by Prince Rupert in his manual on printmaking Sculptura, 1662. The technique subsequently took off in England in the eighteenth century.
