The deep blue hue of the water in the foreground of the print finds a visual counterpoint in the inky blue band that reaches across the horizon and sky. This repetition of color serves to flatten out the scene, bridging the distance between near and far. The mast and sails of the large junk create an interesting play of triangular forms that reflect and frame the form of Fuji in the distance.

Henry Hill
Object type: drawing and watercolor
Date: 1765 – 1770
Materials: board, canvas, linen, paper, pastel
Location: united states
Artist: john singleton copley
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1738 – 1815

In 2006 the Art Institute of Chicago was lucky enough to acquire John Singleton Copley's pastel Henry Hill, the companion to Mrs. Henry Hill (Anna Barrett) (1959.511) which has been in the collection since 1959. Both pastels retain their original Rococo-style frames. They may have been carved by the Boston cratsman John Welch, who created many of Copley's Rococo frames, the type the artist used most frequently for his American portraits. The frame on Mrs. Henry Hill was gilded, as this was generally appropriate for the Rococo style; however, recent scholarship has revealed that a few Copley frames, like that of Henry Hill, were painted black. Thus, these portraits present two different ways that Copley's frames might have been finished.

Study of a Woman and Child
Object type: drawing

Materials: chalk
Techniques: highlighting
Artist: romain cazes
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1808 – 1881
Subjects: infants,women

This drawing of a gown covering the knee of a lightly sketched woman comes from a group of eleven sheets once attribued to Frederic Lord Leighton, but now identified as by Romain Cazes. Cazes was a student of Ingres who painted murals in churches in both Paris and southwest France, and these drawings demonstrate his adherance to academic practice. The latter directs artists to make separate studies of posed nude figures and their garments as compositions are planned. The group were donated to The Museum by Albert Eugene Gallatin, an influential New York collector and critic who promoted "Art for Art's Sake," insisting that aesthetics, rather than narrative or moral concerns, underpins enduring art.

Block Statue of the Scribe of Divine Offerings, Tjaenwaset, son of Harsiese
Object type: block statue, tjaenwaset
Date: 690 – 610
Location: egypt

Tjaenwaset belonged to an illustrious family of priests and viziers at Thebes: his father Horsiese, grandfather Horkheb, and great-grandfather Horsiese are named on the statue. Tjaenwaset's front panel depicts him worshiping the Osiris fetish. The prominent position of the motif, which more often occurs on the sides of block statues, may be connected with the role of his son, Pediese the donor of the statue, as a priest of Osiris the Coptite who figures in the complex of Osiris shrines attached to Karnak. These shrines played a part in reenactments of Osiris's resurrection at Karnak temple. From the late New Kingdom onward, the cult of Osiris was increasingly intertwined with every aspect of religious practice.

Chasuble
Object type: chasuble
Date: 1801 – 1900
Materials: metal thread, silk

Though, at first glance, this chasuble– the tabard-like garment worn by a Catholic priest during church services– resembles sixteenth-century work, it can be attributed to artisans working in the mid-nineteenth century. The velvet is thin, low quality and relatively modern; gold-colored braid has been stitched to it to evoke the much more complicated multiple-piled patterning of a Renaissance 'cloth of gold'. The embroidery of the central orphrey panel is well-executed, using the same techniques as much earlier works, but the designs reveal a nineteenth-century sweetness in their aesthetic, especially facial features, and the raw materials are, again, of much lower grade quality, resulting in the degradation around the chest area, a result of wear-and-tear from when this was worn by the priest.
