Catskill 1864: A Forest Stream (from Sketchbook)
Object type: drawing

Materials: graphite, paper
Culture: american
Artist: thomas hewes hinckley
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1813 – 1896
Subjects: forests,trees

Hinckley painted landscapes chiefly as a background to his portraits of wild and domesticated animals. This sketchbook (1992.373.1 recto–.27) contains thirty-four drawings in graphite and watercolor and appears to have been filled during a tour that the artist probably began near the Delaware Water Gap and extended north into the Catskill Mountains and Adirondacks of New York State. Few of the drawings in this book, however, can be linked to Hinckley’s known paintings after 1864, and the majority of them represent not merely selected motifs, but discrete compositions that often assume the character of engraved vignettes.

Button or Bead

Location: iran

This object was excavated at 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 to 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. American archaeologists and hundreds of Iranian workers excavated archaeological areas named Tepe Madrasa, Village Tepe, Sabz Pushan, Qanat Tepe, Tepe Alp Arslan, Vineyard Tepe, among others. They uncovered vast neighborhoods with mostly residential buildings, but also mosques, bathhouses, and possibly a governmental palace. Two main chronological phases were recognized in the sites: the first covers the ninth-tenth centuries and the second covers the eleventh-twelfth centuries. Thousands of artifacts were also recovered, mostly ceramic, glass, metal, and stone vessels, as well as carved and painted stuccoes and wall paintings, which were divided in half between the two countries, resulting in over four thousand objects in the Met’s collection today.

Weissenbruch was partial to small Dutch towns where the 17th century was still palpable. The degree of detail in this townscape suggests that he painted it from life. However, because the exterior of the gate was more interesting, he simply turned it around. Moreover, the moment he portrayed was not chosen randomly. The sun shines brightly again after a rain shower, bathing everything in a crisp light.

Patio from the Castle of Vélez Blanco
Object type: period room
Date: 1506 – 1515
Materials: marble

The patio from the castle at Vélez Blanco, near Almeria, is a jewel of early sixteenth-century Spanish architecture. Its structure reflects the Spanish taste of its architect in the asymmetrical layout, Gothic gargoyles, flat-timbered ceilings, and low, segmental arches. Carvers from northern Italy executed the decorative Renaissance details. A sumptuous array of fanciful flora and fauna appears on the spandrels and intrados of the arches, the piers of the balustrade, and the doors and windows. Though elaborate, the motifs preserve the clarity of form, the naturalism, and the three-dimensional quality that were characteristic of the early Italian Renaissance and proved so influential.
