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.

Date: 1734 – 1766
Materials: lace, linen
Techniques: lace
Subjects: flowers

The Metropolitan Museum's great lace collection was started when the Museum became the first among American museums to organize a permanent collection of lace with the acceptance of the McCallum Collection in 1879 and the bequests of Mrs. John Jacob Astor, Mrs. Robert L. Stuart, Mrs. Augustus Cleveland, and Mrs. A. W. Winters shortly thereafter. In 1893 a loan collection of antique laces shown at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago was assembled by a committee of New York women headed by Catharine Augusta Newbold. About 1900 Miss Newbold arranged and labeled an exhibition of laces and linenworks lent to the Metropolitan Museum by Mrs. James Boorman Johnstone and the Misses Johnstone. "Her scholarly knowledge of lace technique enabled the Museum for the first time to offer a comprehensive display of lace illustrating its historical development," wrote Miss Frances Morris, then curator of the textile department. Miss Newbold's name occurs again in connection with a group of thirty-eight laces recently given to the Museum by her nieces, Mrs. Donald P. Spence and The Lady Reigate, in memory of her sister, their mother, Mrs. William Redmond Cross. These represent a selection of the finest of Miss Newbold's personal lace collection, a collection probably made at the time she was active in lace circles in New York about the last decade of the nineteenth and early part of the twentieth century, under the guidance of Marian Hague, a distinguished connoisseur and collector herself. This period witnessed the last peak of appreciation of and connoisseurship in an art form that had been in tremendous vogue from its beginnings in the fifteenth century. And it was the last period in which fine laces were available in any number. Among choice examples of the great lace types represented in Miss Newbold's small collection are: early Italian pieces combining cut-work, pulled work, reticella, embroidery on linen ground; Sicilian polychrome silk filet; seventeenthcentury Venetian points (point de Venise à reseau and the widely known rose point de Venise); famous French needlepoints (Point de Paris, Argentan, Alençon); French and Flemish bobbin laces (Binche, Valenciennes, Brussels, Point d'Angleterre, and Point de Gaz); and a beautiful cap crown of Argentella (1979.310.9), a rare eighteenth-century European lace whose place of origin has never been surely determined.

Chasuble back
Object type: chasuble back
Materials: metal thread, silk
Subjects: infants,men,women

This garment is almost certainly a dealer's composite object, assembled towards the end of the nineteenth century to meet the demands of the lively antiques' market. Though resembling a priestly chasuble, it is unconventionally large and combines a very low quality, thin and relatively modern patched velvet with a much older set of embroideries. The embroideries have been very heavily restored, indeed the saint figures (Saints Paul and Barbara on the front; the Virgin and Child, Saints Peter and Lucy on the reverse) may have been cut out of a historic textile and reapplied onto modern, embroidered niches designed in pastiche Renaissance style.

Object type: crèche figure
Subjects: men

The practice of using crèche figures to restage religious events reached the height of its complexity and artistic excellence in eighteenth-century Naples, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s group of Neapolitan crèche is one of the finest and most complete survivals of the art form. The ensemble consists of characters traditional to eighteenth-century Italian Christmas holiday customs. The Nativity, featuring the holy family, shepherds and their flocks, and a host of angels and cherubs is joined by the procession of the three Magi, townspeople, colorful peasants, individuals from the Mediterranean shores, and animals. The figures have articulated bodies of tow and wire with polychromed terracotta heads, and are all in partially distressed condition. These vibrant characters are further brought to life by a wide-ranging set of cloth, embroidery, leather, wicker, wax, and silver accessories. Many of these, such as the figures’ luxurious costumes, baskets of fruit, and gilt censers are original, and represent forms traditional to the rural areas around Naples during this period.
