Two strips
Object type: relief
Date: 900 – 701
Materials: ivory
Culture: assyrian
Location: mesopotamia

This is one of two fragments of a narrow strip decorated with an incised row of diamonds, set within a border marked by a single line above and below. Carved ivory pieces such as this were widely used in the production of elite furniture during the early first millennium B.C. They were often inlaid into a wooden frame using joinery techniques and glue, and could be overlaid with gold foil or inlaid with colored glass or stone pieces to create a dazzling effect of gleaming surfaces and bright colors. This strip was deliberately roughened on the back, probably to help the glue join the surface of the ivory to another element made out of wood or ivory. Built by the Assyrian king Ashurnasirpal II, the palaces and storerooms of Nimrud housed thousands of pieces of carved ivory. Most of the ivories served as furniture inlays or small precious objects such as boxes. While some of them were carved in the same style as the large Assyrian reliefs lining the walls of the Northwest Palace, the majority of the ivories display images and styles related to the arts of North Syria and the Phoenician city-states. Phoenician style ivories are distinguished by their use of imagery related to Egyptian art, such as sphinxes and figures wearing pharaonic crowns, and the use of elaborate carving techniques such as openwork and colored glass inlay. North Syrian style ivories tend to depict stockier figures in more dynamic compositions, carved as solid plaques with fewer added decorative elements. However, some pieces do not fit easily into any of these three styles. Most of the ivories were probably collected by the Assyrian kings as tribute from vassal states, and as booty from conquered enemies, while some may have been manufactured in workshops at Nimrud. The ivory tusks that provided the raw material for these objects were almost certainly from African elephants, imported from lands south of Egypt, although elephants did inhabit several river valleys in Syria until they were hunted to extinction by the end of the eighth century B.C.

Deze serie, getiteld ‘Pugillus facetiarum iconographicarum in studiosorum (…)’, bestond vermoedelijk uit 36 of meer prenten. Van deze serie zijn in ieder geval twee uitgaven bekend, uit 1608 en 1618. De prenten uit deze serie in de collectie van het Rijksmuseum (RP-P-1996-1 t/m RP-P-1996-36) zijn vermoedelijk afkomstig uit verschillende uitgaven, of uit de tweede uitgave. De inhoud van beide uitgaven verschilt, maar om de precieze inhoud van de verschillende uitgaven vast te stellen is meer onderzoek nodig. Er zijn geen volledige exemplaren van de eerste uitgave bekend.

Aan de hand van de analyse van een andere serie, ‘Jeucht spieghel’,* die kopieën van ‘Pugillus’ bevat en is uitgegeven in 1610 én de aanwezige exemplaren van prenten uit ‘Pugillus’ in een inmiddels verloren album amicorum uit 1610,** kan in ieder geval van een aantal prenten gesteld worden dat ze al voorkwamen in de uitgave van 1608. Dit geldt voor RP-P-1996-1 (de titelprent), RP-P-1996-5, RP-P-1996-6, RP-P-1996-7, RP-P-1996-8, RP-P-1996-9, RP-P-1996-10, RP-P-1996-11, RP-P-1996-12, RP-P-1996-13, RP-P-1996-14, RP-P-1996-15, RP-P-1996-16, RP-P-1996-17, RP-P-1996-18, RP-P-1996-19, RP-P-1996-24, RP-P-1996-28, RP-P-1996-29, RP-P-1996-33 en RP-P-1996-35.
Van één prent (RP-P-1996-31) kan vastgesteld worden dat die pas in de latere uitgave van 1618 voorkwam, omdat het kopie is van een prent uit weer een andere serie, ‘Academia sive speculum vitae scholasticae (…)’, die werd uitgegeven in 1612.***

De huidige prent is de titelprent van de uitgave van 1608.

Born into a distinguished family of scientists and statisticians, Bertillon began his career as a clerk in the Identification Bureau of the Paris Prefecture of Police in 1879. Tasked with maintaining reliable police records of offenders, he developed the first modern system of police identification. The system, which became known as Bertillonage, had three components: anthropometric measurement, precise verbal description of the prisoner’s physical characteristics, and standardized photographs of the face. In the early 1890s Paris was subject to a wave of bombings and assassination attempts carried out by anarchist proponents of "propaganda of the deed." One of Bertillon’s greatest successes came in March 1892, when his system of identification led to the arrest of an anarchist bomber who went by the name Ravachol (2005.100.375.348). The publicity surrounding the case earned Bertillon the Legion of Honor and encouraged police departments around the world to adopt his anthropometric system.

Fragment of a Bowl
Object type: fragment of a bowl
Date: 801 – 1000
Materials: earthenware, glaze
Location: iran

This ceramic fragment was excavated at the site of Tepe Madrasa in Nishapur. Nishapur was a vital city in the early and middle Islamic periods, located along one of the main trajectories that connected Iran and West Asia Islamic lands with Central Asia and China. These itineraries are often referred by the term ‘Silk routes’ but were in fact crucial to the movement of constellations of materials and objects, as well as people and ideas. The diverse population of Nishapur and its surroundings, from the better-researched elite groups of merchants, land-owning aristocracy, and literates, to the less-known artisans, farmers, miners, and servants, were instrumental in adapting global cultural trends to create their own distinctive visual languages. This is seen in the material remains of everyday life in medieval Nishapur – from pots and pans to lighting devices, inkwells, textiles and trimmings, jewelry, games and toys, talismanic devices, weapons, coins, and architectural fragments. Nishapur lost its political prominence due to a series of earthquakes and invasions that peaked in the thirteenth century. Today, the medieval city is a vast archaeological area, while the relatively small modern city is situated to its north. Instead, Mashhad, a major pilgrimage site, emerged as a major prosperous metropolis in the region. Between 1935 and 1948, the "Persian Expedition" of the Metropolitan Museum of Art excavated at several sites at Nishapur under an agreement with the Iranian authorities. The recovered artifacts were divided in half between the two countries, resulting in over four thousand objects in the Met’s collection today. As part of the larger "Persian Expedition" project at Nishapur, American archaeologists and hundreds of Iranian workers excavated a mound named Tepe Madrasa. There, they uncovered an architectural complex which they tentatively associated with a palace or governmental center because of the solidity of the built structures and the extent and variety of wall decorations (including carved and painted brickwork, glazed tiles, wall paintings, and carved and painted stuccoes). This, together with the ceramic and metal finds, aided in attributing the site to the ninth or tenth century onwards. A mosque, refurbished multiple times up to the late eleventh century, was also unearthed, yielding the remains of a monumental entrance with a large terracotta inscription bearing the titles of a sultan (39.40.58, .60–64). Several twelfth century tombstones were also unearthed, showing the shift in purpose of what was earlier a residential area.
