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.

Bamboo-Covered Stream in Spring Rain
Object type: painting
Materials: ink, paper
Location: china
Artist: xia chang
Artist nationality: chinese
Artist dates: 1388 – 1470
Subjects: landscapes
Inscriptions: Inscribed by the artist:
海虞周君季宏築室西疇，脩竹萬竿環繞溪上。予嘗造焉，愛其泉石清幽，竹色蒼潤，足以洗滌塵慮。一日季宏命中子廷悅持素卷來求墨君。予方納涼松亭，因想其勝，為寫竹泉春雨圖以復之。雖不能造古人閫奧，抑亦仿佛乎西疇之勝概也耶。季宏博雅君子，見之豈無彼此相感之意焉！時正統辛酉夏六月初吉，東吳夏昶仲昭識。

Zhou Jihong of Haiwu built a house at Xichou, where ten thousand long bamboo trees surround the stream.  I love the quiet and beautiful scenery of stream and rocks, and the green and moist color of bamboo is enough to clean away worldly worries.  One day Jihong had his second son, Tingyue, bring me a roll of blank paper and ask for a painting of bamboo.  At that time, I was enjoying the coolness at the Pine Pavilion; therefore, I thought about the scenery and painted the Bamboo-Bordered Stream in Spring Rain.  Although my painting cannot match the old masters’ essence of learning, it resembles the scenery of Xichou.  I wonder if Jihong, who is a scholar of profound knowledge, has the same feeling when he looks at this painting.  On the first day of the sixth month, in the xinyou year of the Zhentong reign [1441], Xia Chang Zhongshao of Dongwu.

This fifty-foot composition reveals a “slit-view” perspective of bamboo growing along a stream. In single brushstrokes of varied tonality, leaves and stalks are depicted close up, cut off at top and bottom. Xia Chang executed this painting with great breadth and boldness as a gift for a friend who had planted a bamboo grove around his retirement villa.

As it bends without breaking, bamboo evoked human values of resiliency and endurance for intellectual painters of premodern China. Xia’s dedicatory inscription on this scroll, describing the bamboo garden as “washing away ordinary thought,” expresses their desire for retreat from the trials of official life. He had served the government in roles of calligrapher, draftsman, and administrative secretary before retiring for a decade in 1439, initially to care for his aged mother. This painting exhibits his style of angular rocks, ink-washed shoreline, and fluent brushwork that matured during that period.

Cardinal Fernando Niño de Guevara (1541–1609)
Object type: painting
Date: 1600 – 1600
Materials: canvas, oil
Artist: el greco (domenikos theotokopoulos)
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: greek
Artist dates: 1540 – 1614
Subjects: men,portraits

El Greco probably painted Fernando Niño de Guevara in the spring of 1600, when the cardinal was in Toledo with King Philip III and members of the Madrid court. From his time in Venice and Rome, El Greco would have been familiar with Titian’s psychologically charged portraits. He has intensified his sitter’s inner life through animated brushwork, a reduced palette, and the cardinal’s frontal gaze. The angularity of the garment as it falls to the floor and the tension of the man’s left hand suggest an electricity held in check. In 1599 Niño de Guevara became inquisitor general of Spain. He resigned in 1602 and served the rest of his life as archbishop of Seville. Beginning in 1906, French and German publications on El Greco regularly identified this as among the artist’s greatest portraits.

Calverley modeled this portrait bust of Robert Burns (1759–1796) in 1890, two years after his bronze full-length statue of the Scottish poet was unveiled in Washington Park in Albany, New York. Scottish-born steel magnate Andrew Carnegie was an admirer of Burns and, aware of Calverley’s statue, commissioned from him a life-size bust of the poet for his library. Carnegie was so pleased with the result that in 1891 he ordered a second bronze cast for the Metropolitan Museum.

Plaque with the Symbol of the Evangelist Matthew
Object type: plaque
Date: 1100 – 1100
Materials: copper, enamel, gilt
Techniques: enamel, cutting
Culture: french
Location: france
Subjects: emblems

This plaque, part of an ensemble including four plaques with the symbols of the evangelists and a central roundel with the crucifixion, probably from a book cover, can be securely attributed to the celebrated pilgrimage abbey of Saint Foy at Conques, France's richest surviving repository of medieval goldsmith's work. Several of the rare works dispersed from the abbey's treasury in the nineteenth century share with others still in situ a technique, style, and palette uniquely combined during the abbacy of Bégon III in the late eleventh century. For these pieces the monk goldsmiths employed superimposed copper plaques, the lower one to receive the delicate cloisons that define features and drapery, the upper one cut to delineate the silhouettes of the figures and the cross. Hallmarks of the style include the single cloison used to define eyebrows and noses and the thin loop of gold that creates cowlicks. In the Metropolitan's reconstituted ensemble, the same remarkable oxblood color was used for the symbol of Saint Luke and the hair of the image of the Sun ("Sol") above the Crucifixion. Furthermore, scientific analysis has determined that common enamel compositions and the same metallic oxides were used to tint and opacify all five pieces.

Gold Bracteate
Object type: bracteate
Date: 400 – 600
Materials: gold
Culture: scandinavian
Subjects: animals,birds,faces

This thin gold pendant, known as a bracteate, displays a deft and spirited design defined by bold, sweeping lines. The central face exemplifies the exuberant, highly abstact style of early medieval Scandinavian artists. The border zone, formed by intricate and orderly rows of repeated punchwork, reveals the great technical competency of goldsmiths working in northern Europe during the fifth and sixth centuries. The manufacture of bracteates probably originated with Roman and Byzantine portrait medallions, presented by the emperor as gifts to important figures. Here, however, the imperial image has been transformed into the depiction of a god, perhaps Odin, chief of Nordic pantheon; his oversize face is balanced atop a galloping horse with horns. With their fine workmanship and allusions to the Roman and Byzantine worlds, gold bracteates conveyed both the sophisticated taste and the high social status of their owners, who wore them as fine jewerly and hoarded them as treasure.

Joab verraadt Amasa en vermoordt hem zonder de toestemming van David. Hij steekt hem neer onder het mom van een vriendschappelijke omhelzing (2 Samuël 20:8-12). Dit is een schending van het vijfde Gebod: "Gij zult niet doden". Op de achtergrond het gevolg van deze daad. Joab wordt op zijn beurt door Salomo's soldaten vermoordt, terwijl hij bescherming zoekt in de tempel. De prent heeft een Latijns onderschrift. De prentserie beeldt de Tien Geboden uit door middel van scènes van het Oude Testament.
