Artist: bartolomeo fenice (fénis)
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: italian
Subjects: men,furniture

This print is from L'Idea di un Principe ed Eroe Cristiano in Francesco I d'Este, di Modena e Reggio Duca VIII [...] collected in an album of brown boards. Four prints are hinged on each page of the album with a seventeenth- or eighteenth-century inscription pasted beneath the print on the album page. The prints are etched in the manner of Callot and illustrate Francesco I d'Este's virtuous nature as a ruler in battle, in religious matters, and in daily life. Three of the prints are signed by Jean Sauvé, who presumably worked with Fenice on the execution of the illustrations for this book. There are sixty-seven copper plates and forty-five preparatory drawings in the Museo Civico di Modena.

Restrikes of Plate 131, from the series "Triumph Des Kaiser Maximilian I.", designed for a frieze celebrating the achievements of Emperor Maximilian I. The overall program was developed by Maximilian I and Johannes Stabius in 1512 and recorded by Marx Treitz-Sauerwein; the manuscripts with this text survive at the Nationbibliothek in Vienna. The illustrations, designed between 1516 and 1518, were largely the work of Hans Burgkmair, with contributions by Albrecht Altdorfer, Hans Springinklee, Albrecht Dürer, Leonhard Beck, and Hans Schäufelen. The project was incomplete as of Maximilian's death in 1519, and the first edition was not published until 1526. This edition of restrikes was released as two supplement volumes to the first two volumes of "Jahrbuch der kunsthistorischen Sammlungen des allerhöchsten Kaiserhauses" (1883 and 1884), which published the text with Maximilian's orginal program as dictated to Treitz-Sauerwein. The supplement volumes, published 1883-84 in Vienna by Adolf Holzhausen, include 135 woodcuts from the original blocks in The Albertina.

Steeped in ceramics from birth, Hugh C. Robertson pursued his craft with fierce devotion and a passion for experimentation. From a family of trained English ceramists, he honed his skills in New Jersey before settling in Massachusetts as one of the founders of Chelsea Keramic Art Works and later, Dedham Pottery. Robertson’s lifelong explorations in glazes, particularly their color and texture, make him one of the key figures of American art pottery at the turn of the twentieth century. From Chelsea to Dedham, Robertson continued to pursue his passion for innovation, employing the grayish-white stoneware used for Dedham’s dinnerware to throw simple forms covered with bold combinations of colored and textured glazes. Despite his financial backers’ stipulation against further research into sang-de-boeuf, or oxblood, glazes, Robertson did not entirely abandon that costly pursuit. Many of his Dedham vessels have brilliant layerings of red and purple glazes. Experimenting with a daring, difficult-to-control method, Robertson tried painting designs with glaze onto glaze, layering one over the other. The propensity for the glazes to flow together or even run off the vessel made this technique very challenging. This example features an application of orange red glaze over green with motifs that may originally have been intended to be representational but now appear boldly abstract. This vase is from the Robert A. Ellison Jr. Collection of American art pottery donated to the Metropolitan Museum in 2017 and 2018. The works in the collection date from the mid-1870s through the 1950s. Together they comprise one of the most comprehensive and important assemblages of this material known.

Relief-decorated Lentoid Bottle ("New Year's Bottle"); Horus falcon in marshes on one side; cow goddess in marshes on the other
Object type: new year's bottle with cow goddess nebethetepet
Date: 630 – 630
Materials: faience
Location: egypt
Subjects: horus,cows

The goddess Nebethetep, who is invoked in the inscription and who is related to Hathor, strides through the marshes in the form of a cow in the scene on one side of this jar. On the other the falcon god Horus is depicted in a thicket in the marshes. Relief-decorated faience vessels of the first half of the first millennium B.C. form a distinctive group. The scenes they exhibit are drawn from a set of interconnected cycles mainly having to do with divine and royal rebirth and great female goddesses, mythological events that were filled with meaning for society's continuity and prosperity. As the inscription on a band around the contour of this vessel indicates, these themes were evoked at the transition to a new year, which in Egypt occurred when the Inundation began to cover the land and the success of the coming growing season was in the balance. Details of the decoration and evidence of polychrome decoration suggest that this flask belongs to a series separate from the usual pale blue and somewhat later New Year's flasks. This polychrome group had connections to a wider East Greek production.
