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.

Fragment of a Marble Tomb Relief with Christ Giving the Law
Object type: sarcophagus
Materials: marble
Culture: byzantine
Subjects: christ

The authority of the Christian church grew rapidly with emperor Constantine's recognition of the faith as a legal religion within the Roman Empire in 313. Increasingly the most powerful centers of the church were the old imperial capital, Rome; the new imperial capital, Constantinople, the New Rome; Alexandria; Jerusalem/Caesarea; and Antioch. During the late fourth century, the church in Rome developed images stressing the importance of Saint Peter to whom Christ had given the keys to the kingdom (Matt. 16: 18-20). Traditionally considered the first bishop of Rome, Saint Peter was martyred and buried in the city. These Roman images would spread widely among peoples throughout western Europe as they accepted the authority of the church of Rome. One of these images, the traditio legis, Christ Giving the Law to Saint Peter, shows Christ offering an unfurled scroll containing the law to Saint Peter in recognition of his role as the leader of the church. To the left of Christ stands Saint Paul, also martyred in Rome, acknowledging the authority conferred on Peter. Four other apostles survive on this relief. The scene is placed within a traditional Roman sarcophagus form, a series of niches framed by columns decorated with putti in vine scrolls.

Young Man and Woman Caught in the Rain while Enjoying Cherry Blossoms (Sakura-gari)

Caught in a sudden downpour, a young woman covers her head with the long sleeve of her kimono and her male companion hastens to open an umbrella. The cloth spread on the ground near a cherry tree in full bloom indicates that they were hoping to enjoy an afternoon of merriment beneath the blossoms. The anonymous poem adds a dimension of sexual innuendo, because the word for “to be drenched” (nuru) also connotes sexual intercourse. It reads: Sakura-gari ame wa furikinu onajiku wa nuru to mo hana no kage ni kakuren. While searching for cherry blossoms, it starts to rain, yet even if we get drenched, we will still be in the shade of these flowering trees. —Trans. John T. Carpenter
Rapid photographs
Object type: snapshot
Materials: paper
Techniques: gelatin silver print
Location: amsterdam
Subjects: adolescent, young woman, maiden
Inscriptions: address: ‘Kalverstraat 155’

Between 1912 and 1930, anyone could have their portrait taken at the many so-called rapid photography studios in the shopping streets of mainly (medium) large-size European cities. As if on an assembly line, the youngest clerk shot the photographs with a special camera and in artificial light and developed them. Later in the day, the customer collected a sheet with 12 portrait photos for 25 cents. This form of photographic mass production gave rise to a fascinating tableau of boys, girls, men and women not previously seen in photographs; candid and informal. There were at least 150 quick-photo studios, from Alkmaar to Zutphen. Many called themselves ‘American,’ mistakenly as it turns out because hardly any examples from that country have been found.
Sampler
Object type: sampler

Culture: american
Location: united states
Artist: mary austin
Artist role: maker
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1773 – 1799
Subjects: animals,birds,men,flowers

Mary Austin’s sampler is one of the few late eighteenth-century samplers of its type to name Salem as the place where it was made. However, it is not known which of the city’s many schools she attended. It is unmistakably a Salem sampler due to the long, unraveled silk stitches that create the naïve rendering of the colorful scene below the large block with rows of alphabets. Here a single male figure stands in profile watching his black and white dog chase after a leaping stag, with four frightened birds escaping in the opposite direction. The long stitches in Mary’s blue sky and green grass go straight up, rather than being organized diagonally, which is more commonly seen in Salem samplers. The folk-like whimsy of the scene is in contrast to the formulaic stitching of the six rows of alphabets and inscription above, suggesting that Mary may have drawn her own figures, animals and birds in a composition to suit her own fancy. By comparison, The Met has another Salem sampler worked in 1766 by Rebekah White (1753-1823) with figures more directly inspired or copied from illustrations taken from books of poetry and songbooks. (See: 1984.331.8) Mary Austin is believed to be the daughter of Jonathan Austin. She was born two years before the North Bridge in Salem witnessed the first armed resistance to British authority on February 26, 1775. This bloodless incident is considered the unofficial beginning of the American Revolutionary War. While little is known of her life, Mary may have been the Salem-born “Polly Austin” who married Dudley Porter (1771- 1839) of Gloucester in April or June of 1793. Polly was a common nickname for Mary at the time. The couple had three children, Dudley (1794-1818), Eleazer (1795-1831) and Mary (b. 1797). “Polly” died two years after the birth of her daughter at age 28 in 1799. Whether or not Mary was known as “Polly,” the creative maker of this sampler was a member of the first generation of women to live in the new American Republic and likely adhered to the emerging ideology aimed at expanding education and participation in civic culture for women in order that they might teach their children the ways of the new United Stated democracy – a movement that came to be identified as “Republic Motherhood.”

One page of this lovely illustrated book is devoted to a song from A Midsummer Night’s Dream (act 2, scene 2) crooned by Titania’s fairy attendants to lull their queen to sleep. Hedgehogs, spotted snakes, newts, and spiders—all of which the text instructs to keep their distance—appear in the elaborate border, where color lithography reproduces the brilliant effects of manuscript illumination. Married to an Anglican minister, Abrahall designed this book while moving between postings in Oxfordshire and Wales.

Chessmen (32)
Object type: chessman
Date: 1801 – 1900

The silver king is Napoleon (1769–1821), the silver bishop a French grenadier. The black king is Frederick the Great of Prussia (1712–1786) with his famous walking stick; the black bishop is a Prussian grenadier in a uniform combining eighteenth and nineteenth century features. The queens are crowned, but not otherwise particularized. The pawns are in civilian, not military, dress. The theme of the opposing sides in this set is anachronistic, as Napoleon and Frederick were not contemporaries. Noteworthy for the small scale of the figures, the front row pieces gaining importance from the height of the bases.

Bell-shaped covered cup with a symbolic image of three putti and different objects
Object type: cup
Date: 1750 – 1760
Materials: glaze, gold, paint, porcelain
Techniques: firing, gilding, turning, vitrification
Location: amsterdam
Artist: Anonymous

Kop met deksel en schotel op een voetring, de deksel met een ronde ringknop. Gedecoreerd in polychrome emailkleuren met drie putti in een landschap. Een van de putti blaast zeepbellen door een pijpje. Vóór de putti een piramide, een masker en andere objecten. Op de randen bloem- en bladranken. Boven en onder in de rand is een zon afgebeeld voorzien van een gezicht. De deksel heeft een eigen inventarisnummer: AK-NM-13814.

De voorstelling lijkt sterk op een tekening van de schilder Jacob de Wit (1695-1754) met de titel 'Allegorie op de vergankelijkheid'. Op de tekening zijn de voorwerpen makkelijk te herkennen als een kroon, een doodskop, een schilderspalet, boeken, een masker en een globe. Samen met de bellenblazende putti staat de voorstelling symbool voor de vergankelijkheid van het leven, de wereldlijke macht, van bouwwerken, de kunst en de wetenschap.

De voorstelling op de schotel en de voorstelling op de tekening komt niet op alle punten overeen. Op het porselein loopt de piramide wat verder door, op de tekening is de piramide aan de top afgebroken. Op de tekening is de piramide opgebouwd uit grote blokken, terwijl dat op het porselein niet te zien is. Op de prent houdt de bellenblazende putto zijn arm gestrekt, maar op het porselein is de arm van de putto gebogen.
Het ligt niet voor de hand dat de Chinese porseleinschilder de veranderingen zelf heeft aangebracht, en daarom zal waarschijnlijk niet deze, maar een andere tekening als voorbeeld hebben gediend, wellicht een kopie naar de tekening van de Wit, speciaal vervaardigd om als voorbeeld naar China te worden meegenomen.
