Cup-Hilted Rapier
Object type: cup hilted rapier
Materials: steel
Culture: italian
Location: italy

The rapier was the principal civilian sidearm throughout the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Designed for cut-and-thrust fencing of progressively complex techniques, the rapier is characterized by a double-edged blade with an acute point and an elaborate guard for the hand. The guards, usually of iron or steel, were subject to a variety of embellishment. They were engraved, chiseled, gilded, damascened, and encrusted in gold and silver in keeping with fashionable styles. Unless otherwise noted, the materials, attributions, and dating given here refer to the hilts. Rapier blades, invariably of steel, bear a variety of maker’s marks denoting their origin in the two principal centers of blademaking, Toledo in Spain and Solingen in Germany.

Deze kaart is onderdeel van het zogenaamde 'Voorne Caart-boeck' / 'Caartboeck van Voorne', dat bestaat uit een titelpagina (zie RP-P-1942-347), drie algemene kaarten (van Oost-, West- en Zuid-Voorne)* en dertig detailkaarten. Het kaartboek werd vervaardigd in opdracht van de Staten van Voorne en werd in 1701 uitgegeven. Een deel van de koperplaten is bewaard gebleven en in de negentiende en twintigste eeuw gebruikt voor herdrukken.

*Over de naam Voorne kan verwarring ontstaan omdat de betekenis door de eeuwen heen is veranderd. Vroeger stonden de (voormalige) eilanden Voorne, Goeree en Overflakkee – allen historisch gezien onderdeel van het Land van Voorne – bekend als respectievelijk Oost-, West- en Zuid-Voorne.

In eighteenth-century Europe, Paris led the production of high-quality luxury goods. Parisian goldsmiths made a wide range of small, personal articles such as snuffboxes; étuis to hold sealing wax, tweezers, or utensils for sewing; souvenirs, which contained thin ivory tablets for note taking; and shuttles for knotting lace. Gold snuffboxes and boxes decorated with portrait miniatures were prized and frequently given as royal gifts, often to ambassadors or members of the court in lieu of cash payments for their services. Coveted and admired, these boxes were produced from a variety of materials. The best were skillfully made of gold and embellished with diamonds, enameled decoration, lacquer, and other luxurious materials. By the middle of the century, the taking of snuff had become an entrenched social ritual, and the snuffbox, too, had become an important social prop. Snuffboxes were considered highly fashionable accessories, with some merchants advertising new boxes with each change of season. The popularity of snuffboxes extended to all levels of society, and for those who could not afford gold, boxes were produced in less expensive materials such as silver, tortoiseshell, porcelain, or domestically produced lacquer. The diamond-decorated Cyrillic monogram E/II [Ekaterina] is that of Catherine. According to tradition the empress gave the golden box to Signor Stafano Rivarola, ambassador of the independent Republic of Genoa to the imperial court of Saint Petersburg in 1785. Catherine's reign was known in Russia as the "Age of Diamonds." The precious stones were not only employed in jewelry and the decorative arts but were used as gambling tokens and even carried around like coins.

Radha, the Beloved of Krishna
Object type: painting
Date: 1750 – 1750
Materials: ink, paper, watercolor
Culture: indian
Subjects: profiles,women,radha

In this idealized portrait of Krishna's beloved, Radha, her features reflect metaphors of beauty found in Sanskrit literature: eye like a lotus flower, eyebrow like a bow, chin like a mango stone and sharp nose like a parrot's beak. This stylization stands in sharp contrast to the Mughal-influenced style, which had flourished in the small kingdom of Kishangarh two decades earlier, and demonstrates the radical aesthetic departures of the court painter Nihal Chand, who developed a distinctive "Rajput" style for his patron.
