Brewster & Company History Established in 1810 by James Brewster (1788–1866) in New Haven, Connecticut, Brewster & Company, specialized in the manufacture of fine carriages. The founder opened a New York showroom in 1827 at 53-54 Broad Street, and the company flourished under generations of family leadership. Expansion necessitated moves around lower Manhattan, with name changes reflecting shifts of management–James Brewster & Sons operated at 25 Canal Street, James Brewster Sons at 396 Broadway, and Brewster of Broome Street was based at 372 & 374 Broome Street with a repository (showroom) on 14th Street & Fifth Avenue. By 1874, Brewster & Company had 400 employees and combined warehouse and factory facilities at 47th & 48th Streets and Broadway. Brewster successfully branched out to produce their own automobiles, as well as supplying bodies for Rolls Royce at their Long Island City location. Notable clientele included Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, August Belmont, J.P. Morgan, John Jacob Astor, Andrew J. Cassatt (brother of artist Mary Cassatt), William Rockefeller, Henry Clay Frick and Pierre Lorillard. Talented draftsmen employed by the firm included Paul Steinbeck, Herman Stahmer and John Gribbon, the latter teaching at the Carriage Builders and Designers Technical School, which opened in 1880 and was housed initially at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. When the company finally dissolved in 1923, its last owner William Brewster (1866–1949) donated its archive of design and presentation drawings to the Museum where he served as benefactor and trustee. Of all American carriage manufacturers, none was as highly regarded for design, finish and quality as Brewster & Company. They won many awards for outstanding workmanship, including the Legion d’Honneur (Legion of Honor) at the 1878 Paris Exposition (3rd World’s Fair). In appreciation for this achievement the Carriage Builders’ National Association presented them with a gold enameled Tiffany & Company plaque and autograph book signed by leading American carriage builders, both now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This desk and bookcase is closely related to English furniture of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The naturalistic carving on the top of the bookcase section recalls English architectural carvings of the seventeenth century. Almost all brass fittings on 18th-century American furniture were imported from England or Europe. The original and distinctive brass hardware on this piece, however, may have been made in Boston by one of the few brass foundries known to operate in the colonies.

Beginning in the 1850s, photographers found a way to achieve the clarity of daguerreotypes without giving up the reproducibility inherent in William Henry Fox Talbot's negative/positive photographic process: they replaced the paper negative with glass, which they coated with a thin layer of wet photosensitive collodion (guncotton dissolved in ether). For large-format landscape work such as Watkins produced along the Columbia River in Oregon, the physical demands of this process were great. Since there was as yet no practical means of enlarging, Watkins's glass negatives had to be as large as he wished the prints to be, and his camera large enough to accommodate them. Furthermore, the glass negatives had to be coated, exposed, and developed while the collodion remained tacky, requiring the photographer to transport a traveling darkroom as he explored the virgin terrain of the American West. The crystalline clarity and classic probity of Watkins's remarkable "mammoth" prints attest to his virtuosic mastery of the process and his consummate artistry.

This scene evokes the famous scene from Chapter 51, “A Boat Cast Away” (Ukifune), of the The Tale of Genji. The setting is the New Year, the beginning of spring in the lunar calendar, when the plum trees are about to burst into bloom, the warbler is poised to sing its first song (hatsune) of the year, and pine saplings—ready to be plucked—for the Ne no hi (First Day of the Rat) ceremony adorn the shores of a winding stream. At a tumultuous point in her life Ukifune finds herself falling in love with competing suitors, Kaoru and Niou. The far-and-away most commonly depicted scene set a bit later in spring after a heavy snowfall when the moon is in the morning sky and Niou joins Ukifune for boat ride on the Uji river to the Isle of Oranges (Tachibana no kojima) accompanied, according to the tale, by her maid and a boatman. In most depictions, however, the maid and boatman are omitted from the scene to focus on the lovers. Here a young maiden with flowing hair poles the boat. The kyōka (witty thirty-one-syllable poems) accompanying the illustration are not connected to The Tale of Genji in any way whatsoever, but are rather generic New Year’s greetings, and a surimono (privately commissioned print) like this would have circulated among members of a literary salon. Yet, even though the poems have no explicit references the Tale, the setting of the Ukifune chapter at the New Year, the beginning of spring, allows the poetic associations and imagery to provide the setting for a New Year’s greeting card. One phrase in the middle of the third poem from the right includes the phrase “niou ume ga ka,” “the scent the plum is fragrant . . . ,” but just that little reference was enough to trigger associations in the artist’s imagination with a scene of “fragrant” plum blossoms, not to mention the obvious coincidence that niou (to be fragrant) is a homonym for Niou, the courtier wooing Ukifune. The artist-poet Kubo Shunman (1757–1820) was clever at illustrating and animating such references. He was well versed in the classics and created various surimono series based on the classics such as the Tosa Diary (Tosa nikki) and Tales of Ise (Ise monogatari), among others. The head of the Bakurō poetry group, Hajintei (Tsumuri no) Hikari (1754–1796), whose poem is on the far left, the place of honor, was on close terms with Shunman, who was a skilled poet as well, and would have negotiated with the artist over the design and fee

Scraper
Object type: scraper
Date: 5000 – 2001
Materials: stone
Culture: iranian
Location: iran

This stone scraper was excavated in 1937 at a prehistoric site in the vicinity of Nishapur in northeastern Iran. While Nishapur itself was founded by the Sasanian king Shapur I (reigned ca. A.D. 241-272), this object shows that human habitation there goes back to the prehistoric period. Furthermore, the prehistoric pottery from Nishapur has close affinities with ceramic materials from Central Asia rather than with contemporary sites in Iran, meaning that in this period its inhabitants were likely culturally linked to their neighbors to the east. At the same time, Nishapur’s location on what later became known as the Great Khorasan Road suggests that it was part of the trade network that facilitated the import of precious stones such as lapis lazuli, carnelian and turquoise from Central Asia to Mesopotamia.
