Strook kloskant met veelsoortige bloemen en bogen
Object type: strip
Date: 1700 – 1749
Materials: linen
Techniques: lace, old brabant lace
Location: southern netherlands
Artist: Anonymous

Strook naturelkleurige kloskant: Brabantse kant. Het betreft twee aaneengenaaide manchetten van een koorhemd. Het zich herhalende patroon bestaat uit een grote verscheidenheid aan bloemen en bladeren die over elkaar heen buitelen. Opvallend zijn de dikke bladeren of c-voluten, die rond de middenas op enige afstand van elkaar bogen vormen. Onder elk boog staat een vergelijkbare compositie met een ovale (kelk)bloem op een lichtgebogen steel. De velden tussen de bogen worden op afwisselende wijze gevuld, onder andere met een u-vormige omlijsting waarin acht rozetbloemen een cirkel vormen, bekroond door een compositie met c-voluten en ovalen. De motieven zijn gemaakt in netslag en linnenslag met opengewerkte randjes en uitsparingen. Er is zeer spaarzaam gebruik gemaakt van contourdraden om sommige motiefdelen te accentueren. De motieven zijn grotendeels met elkaar verbonden door een traliegrond, een Parijse grond. De motieven onder de bogen zijn met elkaar verbonden door een gepicoteerde vlechtengrond. Deze vlechtengrond is ook op enkele andere plaatsen gebruikt, waaronder tussen de rozetbloemen in de u-vormige omlijsting. In sommige motieven is een siergrond toegepast. De bovenzijde van de strook is recht afgewerkt met een apart geklost linnen bandje. De onregelmatige schulpenrand langs de onderzijde van de strook komt voort uit het patroon en is afgewerkt met picots.

Folding Fan with a Representation of the 1806 Eruption of Mount Vesuvius
Object type: fan
Date: 1815 – 1815
Materials: gouache, mother of pearl, parchment, watercolor
Subjects: volcanoes,boats

This dramatic nighttime scene captures Mount Vesuvius erupting: a volcanic flare of lurid orange over the midnight blues of the Bay of Naples. Inscriptions on the front and reverse of the fan identify it as the eruption of 1806, although scenes like this- evoking earlier eruptions- had been popular on souvenir fans since the 1760s. Also at The Met, for example, is an eighteenth-century watercolor design with a similar scene of the angry volcano (38.91.105). With its finely worked mother-of-pearl sticks and guards, inlaid with spangles, this would have been a high-end souvenir for an affluent Grand Tourist. In addition to the earlier fan design, other fans depicting Vesuvius erupting are in The Met's collection (63.90.26 and 63.90.73) as well as in the Victoria and Albert Museum; a further design showing Vesuvius erupting is in the British Museum.
Silver Drinking Bowl with Handle
Object type: bowl
Materials: silver
Culture: avar
Location: tirana

The Avars The Avars were a nomadic tribe of mounted warriors from the Eurasian steppe. The Byzantine emperor Justinian negotiated with them in the sixth century to protect the Empire’s northern border along the Black Sea. Emboldened by their subjugation of numerous tribes, they unsuccessfully attempted to seize the Empire’s capital, Constantinople. They remained a scourge of both Byzantium and the Western kingdoms until Charlemagne defeated them through a series of campaigns in the 790s and early 800s. All the money and treasure that the Avars had been years amassing was seized, and no war in which the Franks have ever engaged . . . brought them such riches and such booty. Up to that time the Avars had passed for a poor people, but so much gold and silver was found . . . that one may well think that the Franks took justly from the Avars what the Avars had formerly taken unjustly from other nations. — Einhard (ca. 770–840), biographer of the Frankish ruler Charlemagne, early 800s The Vrap Treasure Tribute payments from the Byzantine Empire and war booty provided the Avars with enormous amounts of gold and silver. Avar goldsmiths created work of exceptionally high quality and were counted among the Avars’ ruling class. This ensemble of objects, all found together in Vrap, in present-day Albania, would seem to attest to the wealth of the Avars. Why this varied group was brought together remains a mystery. Some scholars have suggested that these objects were part of a treasure belonging to an Avar chief; others have speculated that they were the materials of an Avar artist. Others question whether an Avar metalsmith made them at all and assert these objects to be the products of a provincial Byzantine artist.

Jug
Object type: jug
Date: 1550 – 1458
Materials: pottery
Location: egypt

This wheel-made jug and a jar with basket handles (16.10.427) are made of marl clay, covered with a pale coating, burnished, and decorated in red and black paint. The shape of the jug and the contrast between the light-colored surface and the darker ladderlike designs dividing the vessel body into segments recall Cypriot White Pendant Line juglets that were imported into Egypt a generation or two earlier, at the end of the Second Intermediate Period. The Egyptian potters of early Dynasty 18 adapted both the shape and the style of red and black decoration which they also used on typically Egyptian pottery forms. The jug was excavated by the Museum's Egyptian Expedition. It had been placed at the head end of an anthropoid (human-shaped) coffin along with several other containers, several of which came to the Museum when the finds were divided with the Egyptian Antiquities Service. These include the pottery jar mentioned above, three jars of Egyptian alabaster (16.10.421, .423–.424), one of serpentine (16.10.422), three ivory combs (16.10.428–.430), a small ivory cosmetic box (16.10.425).

The Murders in the Rue Morgue, for Edgar Allan Poe’s “Tales of Mystery and the Imagination,” Chicago, 1895–96
Object type: drawing
Date: 1894 – 1894
Materials: graphite, ink
Techniques: brush, pen
Location: great britain
Artist: aubrey vincent beardsley
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1872 – 1898
Subjects: animals,women

Beardsley here responds to Poe’s "Murders in the Rue Morgue," choosing to represent the aftermath of a violent scene described by a sailor who owns a gigantic "Ourang-Outang." The text recounts how the "ferocious animal" kills Madame L'Espanaye, then strangles her daughter, and attempts to hide his crime by "thrust[ing her body] up the chimney." Beardsley's creature (not an orangutan because of its tail), has with pointed nails and a chandelier earring. Carrying the girl's limp body, the animal strides before a large curtained bed in a room that shows no sign of disarray. The body is dressed in pantalettes, a corset and one slipper, with hair falling across the face. This is one of four drawings that Beardsley made to illustrate a new American edition of Poe's "Tales of Mystery and the Imagination." The commission came from the Chicago publisher Stone and Kimball in December 1893 and the artist wrote in response that he believed the material offered "an admirable chance of picture making." Beginning in February 1894, Beardsley completed four of the eight requested designs. Related sets of prints were issued in portfolios that accompanied deluxe Japanese vellum versions of the publication in 1895-96.
Fragment of a Bowl
Object type: decorative art
Date: 100 – 100
Materials: glass
Culture: roman
Location: roman empire
Subjects: decoration

In ancient Rome, there was a high demand for colorful glass that could dazzle banquet guests alongside the expensive silver and gold serving wares meant to impress. Fragments like this one would have once been a part of larger mosaic dishes. The mosaic pattern was made by sagging molten glass into bowl-shaped molds, a technique used on many of these fragments is similar to millefiori, “thousand flowers” in Italian, a modern glass-making method in which tiny rods of colored glass are bundled together, wrapped in a sheet of glass, fused, and then thinly sliced to reveal swirls of a flower-like patterns. They were arranged side by side, sometimes together with bits of colored glass, and fused together with heat.

The size of this tureen and the high quality of its painted decoration make it as an exceptional example from the manufactory’s middle period. It is painted in the colors and style of Chinese famille verte porcelains, in which green and red predominate; the phoenix and fence motifs derive from Chinese examples. The distinctive handles in the form of turned wood knobs, which are echoed in the shape of the finial, were a Du Paquier invention.

Study for "William Rush Carving His Allegorical Figure of the Schuylkill River"
Object type: painting
Date: 1876 – 1877
Materials: board, canvas, oil
Location: united states
Artist: thomas eakins
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1844 – 1916
Subjects: people, portraits

Best known for his realist portraits and scenes of contemporary life, Thomas Eakins also spent considerable energy on history paintings. Here, he executed a study for a painting that celebrates an early American sculptor, William Rush. In the finished painting, Rush is depicted carving his Water Nymph and Bittern (1809), for which the model poses; the statue adorned a public square in Philadelphia, the hometown of both artists. Eakins, an ardent advocate of studying from life, highlights this artistic working method in his rendering of the female form. In 1870s America, artistic studies from the nude figure remained a rarity, a condition that Eakins worked hard to overturn in the following years as an instructor at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
