Studies of a Roman Sarcophagus
Object type: drawing and watercolor
Date: 1602 – 1603
Materials: chalk, paper
Location: belgium
Artist: peter paul rubens
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: flemish
Artist dates: 1577 – 1640
Inscriptions: Inscribed by the artist, upper left, in pen and brown ink: "Socrates procul dubio" (Socrates without doubt); upper right: "Xantippe quae stomachatur / vide os columnatum" (Xantippe in one of her moods / see her pillared face); inscribed, lower left, in pen and brown ink: "Rubbens"; verso, upper left, in graphite: "PP Rubens 1577–1640"; lower left, in graphite: "lot 34, 11 ⅛ x 6 ⅜ / Socrates Telanteppe/ Rubens 1577–1640"; lower center, in pen and blue ink: "Peter Paul Rubens 1577–1640"

Using chalk and a loose sheet of paper, Peter Paul Rubens depicted three figures from a sarcophagus likely seen in Roman collector Ciriaco Mattei’s garden. Rubens visited the Eternal City twice during his stay in Italy (1600–08).

Chalk was more portable than ink and therefore an easier medium in which to directly record the remnants of Classical antiquity. Rubens used it to convey the contours of specific sculptural elements as well as the shadows created by their volumes. In comparing this drawing to its source, one can appreciate how selectively Rubens extracted the figures from their architectural surround.

Initiation Card (Tsakalis)
Object type: initiation card
Date: 1401 – 1433
Materials: paper, watercolor
Culture: tibetan
Subjects: buddhism,deities

These tsakali cards, when arranged on the ground as a mandala, create a fixed sacred space like a temple. They show the celestial Buddhas, bodhisattvas, protectors, and, at bottom, the six possible realms of rebirth. Monastic teachers used tsakali cards to align (initiate) a disciple with one of many Vajrayana Buddhist deities. The disciple sought permission from the deity (via dream or supervised by a teacher) and visualized the deity as described in recited mantras and represented on the card. A Nepali artist probably made this set for a Tibetan patron of the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism.

This double-sided bracket (vrksadevata) for a gateway (torana) is decorated on either side with a tree-spirit deity known as a yakshi, who holds a flowering tree as a symbol of her fecundity.

Such figures provided an auspicious presence at the entrance to a sacred site.

His knowledge and observational skills enabled him to draw plants and animals meticulously. He drew this tropical blowfish, a kind of puffer fish, from two sides, adding details about the colours below.
