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.

Manuscript Leaf with the Agony in the Garden and Betrayal of Christ, from a Royal Psalter
Object type: psalter
Date: 1270 – 1270
Materials: gold, parchment, paint
Culture: british
Subjects: apostles,christ,judas,agony in the garden

This manuscript leaf was once part of a Book of Psalms, a compendium of the 150 celebrated biblical poems of praise. This Psalter was made for an English monarch, probably Queen Eleanor of Provence (ca. 1223–1291), the wife of King Henry III. The queen likely bequeathed it to her niece, Eleanor of Brittany, who later became abbess of Fontevrault, in western France, where the manuscript was once preserved. Illustrated pages preceding the text show key events in the life of Christ immediately before his Crucifixion. Here, at the top, he prays in the Garden of Gethsemane, in Jerusalem, while the apostles sleep nearby. Below, his apostle Judas Iscariot betrays him to the authorities as his apostle Peter, in anger, cuts off the ear of Malchus, one of Jesus’s attackers. A thirteenth-century stone relief from Amiens Cathedral (17.120.5), exhibited on the wall nearby, depicts a similar detail: Peter stands over Malchus, sword in hand, while Christ reattaches the severed ear.

Artist role: goldsmith, print maker

No collection of erotic prints should be without Caraglio’s Loves of the Gods. Consisting of twenty-some prints, this scandalous series presents the amorous escapades of the classical gods fairly explicitly. The deities give in to pure lust with great abandon, which involves quite some acrobatic feats. These scenes will doubtless have titillated many a viewer.

Songs of Experience: Nurses Song
Object type: print

Artist: william blake
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1757 – 1827
Subjects: fruit,girls,women,leaves

Blake’s Songs of Experience contains twenty-seven pages. The artist etched the printing plates in 1794, expanding the scope of his earlier Songs of Innocence. He then printed and hand-colored copies of the combined sets over succeeding decades as patrons ordered them, each one visually distinct. Verse and image work together to celebrate poetic inspiration and reveal aspects of the divine as expressed through nature, but the tone of the later Songs of Experience is dark, even despairing. Children experience inexplicable cruelty at the hands of adults and the poet offers neither rescue nor resolution. These works were shaped by the later stages of the French Revolution, which was marked by regicide, the Terror, and repression of radical thinkers in Britain. The artist Edward Calvert met Blake around 1825 and commissioned this copy of Songs of Innocence and of Experience soon thereafter. These richly decorated pages, with their deeply saturated hues and distinctive ornamental borders, reveal Blake’s late vision, and the order is established by small red numbers at upper right. This copy of Songs was later the first work to be purchased by the Museum’s new Department of Prints in 1917, recommended by its distinguished curator William M. Ivins, Jr.

Because silver was associated with purity and durability, it was the most popular material used to fashion objects for administering the Sacrament. Matching sets were rare, and church silver was usually acquired piecemeal over a period of decades. By the end of the 18th century, the First Church of Medford, Massachusetts, had 20 pieces of communion silver, all given by different donors and fashioned by different makers.

Glass mosaic jar
Object type: jar, mosaic
Date: 200 – 68
Materials: glass
Culture: greek, eastern mediterranean

Translucent deep honey brown, opaque white, and colorless. Flaring rim with rounded edge; concave neck; convex curving side, tapering downward; shallow convex bottom within applied outsplayed base ring with rounded edge. Mosaic pattern, imitating banded agate, formed from fifteen large rectangular or polygonal sections of a cane in a brown ground with multiple concentric rings in white and a central colorless eye, arranged vertically from rim to lower body, and two other large sections, placed side by side across bottom, of a cane in brown ground with meandering zigzags in white. On interior, broad horizontal groove on inside of lip below rim; on exterior, band of two parallel horizontal grooves on shoulder and two concentric circles on bottom. Broken and repaired, with some minor chips and cracks; some dulling, pitting, and iridescent weathering, but also areas of high polish. Rotary grinding marks on interior and exterior. Although fragments of mosaic glass are quite numerous and widespread, relatively few intact vessels are known. This jar is one of the star pieces to have survived and is a tour-de-force of the Hellenistic glassworker's skill. Made in imitation of vessels carved in semiprecious stone, such as onyx and banded agate, it gives an idea of the opulent tastes of the age.

The early Christian saints Savina and Syra were both venerated in Champagne, where they were similarly represented as youthful pilgrims, with characteristic hat, staff, and bag. Both often hold open books, as well as palms, though only Savina was a martyr. This example is close to several sculptures still in churches in the Troyes region, particularly to one believed to be Saint Syra in Rigny-le-Ferron.

The bulbous form of this tankard was most popular in Philadelphia, but was occasionally seen in tankards and mugs from New York. The scroll thumb-piece and double-domed lid, without a finial, were also typical of Philadelphia work. Tankards were popular drinking vessels throughout the 18th century, but were replaced at the beginning of the 19th century with the introduction of inexpensive glassware.
