Writing to the sculptor Auguste Rodin after having been astonished by this painting in Paris in 1908, the poet Rainer Maria Rilke described how “splintered light tills the ground, turning it over, tearing into it and bringing up here and there pale green meadows behind the trees standing like insomniacs.” Regarded as El Greco’s greatest landscape, it portrays Toledo, the city where he lived and worked for most of his life. But it is an emotive rather than a documentary vision that not only imaginatively revises the skyline—most notably, the cathedral has been moved—but also distorts architecture and landscape such that they are fully in service of the kind of drama Rilke and other modernists appreciated in his work.

Dirty chimneys posed serious fire hazards. Any resident who neglected theirs risked a hefty fine (twenty-five dollars in 1808). Sweeps—wearing only undergarments and caps—wiggled their way up tight, crooked vents to the chimney tops (note the sweep working in the upper left) and then worked back down, continuously scraping and brushing the soot. The scores of sweeps who performed this brutal task were almost always black boys about ten years old who lived in miserable conditions. Here, Chappel also represents the Cherry Street shops of coppersmith John Wright, tinsmith J. Loyd, and plumber Warren Chardavoyne. The alderman George Buckmaster resided in the brick house at right.

Artist: jacob schmidt
Artist role: maker
Artist nationality: german
Artist dates: 1642 – 1720

Jacob Schmid (1642–1720) was the founder of a trumpet-making workshop in Nuremberg, which flourished under his son Johann Jacob and grandson Paulus for about a century. So far, six instruments by Jacob Schmid are known to have survived, one natural trumpet, two trombones, and three horns, of which two are in the Museum's collection. The present horn is in original condition and marked with the inscription "MACHT IACOB SCHMIDT IN NURNBERG" and the master's sign, a bird with the monogram JS. The instrument, pitched in A-flat, is furnished with a metal ring for a leather strap and decorated with cast game animals applied to the garland. Both features indicate that the instrument was designed as a hunting horn and/or as a horn to be used in a Jagdcorps (hunting choir), where it was played with oboes and bassoons. Horns of this kind and with a large 1-1/2 coil, came into fashion around 1680 in the regal hunt. About 1700, horns began to be included in opera and concert orchestras and were built in a slightly different way. From this time onward, horns were usually built in lower pitches than C and furnished with larger bells, following the trend toward a softer and mellower sound. Schmid's horn clearly follows this new trend.

The Fifth Plague of Egypt, part III, plate 16 from "Liber Studiorum"
Object type: print
Techniques: etching, mezzotint
Artist: joseph mallord william turner
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1775 – 1851
Subjects: landscapes

Turner distilled his ideas about landscape in "Liber Studiorum" (Latin for Book of Studies), a series of seventy prints plus a frontispiece published between 1807 and 1819. To establish the compositions, he made brown watercolor drawings, then etched outlines onto copper plates. Professional engravers usually developed the tone under Turner's direction, and Charles Turner here added mezzotint to describe a passage from "Exodus" 9. The chapter recounts three of the ten plagues invoked by Moses to persuade Egypt's pharoah to release the Hebrews from bondage. Curiously, the title mentions the fifth plague, directed against domestic animals, but the print focuses on the seventh, an apocalypic storm of hail and fire. The letter "H" in the upper margin indicates to Turner's category of Historical landscape.

During the 18th and early 19th centuries, women’s clothing was not constructed with sewn-in pockets. Separate pockets had long narrow tapes along their top edge that tied around the waist and were concealed beneath skirts, accessed by slits or open seams. This pocket may have functioned as a practice piece for a larger project, perhaps a pieced bedcover.
