Trees Bordering a Farm Meadow (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: 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.

Whose Sleeves? (Tagasode)
Object type: screen
Materials: gilt, gold, ink, panel, paper
Culture: japanese
Subjects: robes

The suggestive title of this type of screen—“Whose Sleeves?,” or Tagasode—points to its provocative nature. The viewer is invited to speculate over who owns these gorgeous robes. Such screens omit human figures and represent only the robes, personal accessories, and furniture of the owners. However, even if a garment of a particular period is accurately depicted on the screen it may not be synchronous with the painting’s date of production. The phrase “Whose Sleeves?” is found in classical love poems and was not commonly used to refer to this type of screen until the late nineteenth century. Yet, by the early seventeenth century, representations of clothing stands (ikō-zu) with lavish garments appear in painted handscrolls and woodblock-printed books. Similar compositions were also published in etiquette books for women as guides for how to display garments that were part of their dowry. Actual garments draped over stands could serve as space dividers or interior decoration in premodern Japan, and “Whose Sleeves?” screens could have been used in the same way.

Cow
Object type: crèche figure
Date: 1751 – 1800
Materials: terracotta
Techniques: polychrome
Subjects: cows

In 1964, Loretta Hines Howard generously presented to the Museum over 140 Neapolitan crèche figures, dating from the second half of the eighteenth century. The varied assortment includes figures from the three traditional scenes of a complete Neapolitan presepio: the Nativity, with angels, shepherds, and sheep; the procession of the three Magi, with their colorful retinue of attendants; and the varied and gay crowd of country and town people thronging the tavern, or inn, of Bethlehem — the diversorium mentioned by St. Luke, where on the Holy Night there was no place for Mary and Joseph. Averaging between twelve and fifteen inches in height, according to the position they were to take in perspective in the stage set, the figures are pliable and can be given poses at will, according to their facial expressions. Their bodies are made of tow and wire, their arms and legs are finely carved of wood, and their heads and shoulders are modeled of terracotta and accurately finished. Their attire, often enriched by accessories, jewels, and embroideries, is a sheer joy for the lover of folklore and eighteenth-century costumes. According to a tradition that seems to be supported by stylistic comparisons with figures in the collections of Naples and in the vast holdings of the Bavarian National Museum in Munich, some of the winsome heads of the Howard angels are to be credited to the best eighteenth-century masters: Giuseppe Sammartino (1720–1793), well known for his monumental sculptures in marble and in stucco, his pupils Salvatore di Franco, Giuseppe Gori, and Angelo Viva, and one Lorenza Mosca (d. 1789), who was employed at the Royal Porcelain Factory at Capodimonte and stage director of the Royal Christmas Crib. Since Mrs. Howard's gift, the Museum has recreated the Neapolitan Christmas crib scene, much to the delight of visitors during the holiday season.

Ring with narrow shaft and oval box set with cameo of Medusa
Object type: ring, cameo, medusa
Materials: gold, onyx
Location: egypt

Gorgoneia or Medusa-heads were ubiquitious until the end of Greco-Roman antiquity. They appeared in many contexts, including personal jewelry. On the one hand they might serve as protective amulets, but they also serve the wearer as a concise touchstone for a rich mythological substratum. This Medusa head is carved in cameo technique, that is raised from the surface, rather than intaglio, that is sunken from the surface. Often as here cameos are also cut in banded stones that allow the carver to create an image and background of different colors.

"Jocund Day Stands Tip Toe on the Misty Mountain Tops" (Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, Act 3, Scene 5)
Object type: drawing
Date: 1830 – 1830
Materials: graphite
Artist: george richmond
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1809 – 1896
Subjects: shakespeare,female nudes

This dramatic pose embodies lines that Romeo speaks to Juliet as he prepares to leave after their wedding night: Look, love, what envious streaks Do lace the severing clouds in yonder east. Night’s candles are burnt out, and jocund day Stands tiptoe on the misty mountain tops. I must be gone and live, or stay and die. Echoing the verse, Richmond’s figure of Day balances on the toes of one foot, her forward movement arrested as she turns to check the waxing light. Firm graphite lines define the form while lighter rapid strokes describe flying hair and drapery. When he made this drawing, the artist was suffering romantic difficulties and would have sympathized with Shakespeare’s unhappy lovers. The parents of his fiancée, Julia Tatham, had forbidden him to see her and were encouraging another suitor, a situation that propelled the couple to elope to Gretna Green in January 1831.

Giraffe with Two Keepers
Object type: painting
Date: 1600 – 1699
Materials: ink, silk
Culture: chinese
Artist: unidentified artist
Artist role: artist
Subjects: men,giraffes

In 1414, a giraffe—a creature unknown in China at the time—was presented to the Yongle emperor (r. 1403–24) from the king of Bengal, which was a major trading center on the maritime route between the Arabian Peninsula and China. The Chinese immediately associated it with the qilin, an auspicious mythical creature. As a qilin only appears during the rule of a sagacious ruler, courtiers composed a number of sycophantic encomia celebrating the arrival of the giraffe as an omen that legitimized the reign of the Yongle emperor, who had usurped the throne. The many nearly identical paintings commemorating this event attest to the impact of this gift on the court. The giraffe also influenced the design of the qilin rank badge used for nobles. The giraffe's arrival in China was occasioned by the extraordinary naval expeditions of Admiral Zheng He (1371–1433). Between 1405 and 1433, he commanded seven expeditions, the largest consisting of more than three hundred ships and 37,000 sailors, that reached as far as the east coast of Africa and established China's prestige throughout the region. The giraffe became an emblem of the Yongle emperor's diplomatic success. In this late version of the painting, a celebratory inscription by Shen Du (1357–1434) has been omitted, the giraffe has been given a geometric pattern of hexagonal spots, and central Asian grooms have been substituted for the original South Asian keepers.

Conical Bowl with Interior of Fish Swimming amid Waves Encircling a Sea Crab and Exterior of Stylized Petals
Object type: vessel
Materials: stoneware
Techniques: carving, molding, underglaze
Location: china

Potters from Yaozhou used a carved mold to decorate the interior of this bowl, making the process of production more efficient. Remarkably, this accelerated approach to decoration did not compromise the beauty of the final product. Inside the bowl, four fishes gracefully encircle a sea creature — either a crab or a squid — amidst the rippling waves. The surface of the bowl is fully covered in a glossy, translucent olive-green glaze. The glaze pools in the recesses, producing a slightly deeper hue that enhances the dynamism and vividness of the motifs. When filled with water or tea, the bowl brings the marine animals to life by creating an illusion of them swimming within the liquid.
