Landscape
Object type: painting
Date: 1885 – 1895
Materials: canvas, oil
Culture: american
Artist: ralph albert blakelock
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1847 – 1919
Subjects: landscapes,trees

"Landscape" is typical of the large-scale woodland scenes that Blakelock painted before his confinement to a mental institution in 1899. An expansive landscape is framed by two copses of bushes and trees. Although ambitious in scale, the painting is not grandiose in effect--the panoramic vista does not show a natural wonder, dramatic weather, or even a recognizable locale. Instead, Blakelock represents a pure landscape at an indefinite time of day and explores the possibilities of color, texture, and pattern. In "Landscape," as in so many of his successful pictures, the artist transcends an observed subject to express his own personal vision.

Human-face Scarab with Sphinx and Hieroglyphs
Object type: scarab, sphinx, maat, djed, uraus
Date: 1295 – 1070
Materials: stone
Techniques: glazing
Location: egypt
Subjects: scarabs

The underside of this scarab shows a recumbent human-headed sphinx, wearing a nemes-headcloth with a uraeus on the front. The sphinx is a popular motif on scarabs, especially during the New Kingdom and the Late Period, and embodies the pharaoh. Here it holds a seated figure of the goddess Maat in his front paws, while a sun disk is placed above, and below the sphinx the sign of endurance (djed) is flanked by two uraei. On the back, a single line divides the wing cases of the scarab, but a human face with ribbed head band replaces the head and shoulders of the beetle. The earliest examples of human-face scarabs date to the late Middle Kingdom and the Second Intermediate Period (ca. 1850-1550 B.C.) but they are also well attested during the late New Kingdom.

Thebes. Médinet-Habou. Partie orientale du Péristyle du Palais de Ramsès-Méiamoun
Object type: photograph
Techniques: paper negative, salted paper print
Artist: maxime du camp
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1822 – 1894
Subjects: columns,ruins

Perched among the ruins at Medinet Habu, Du Camp’s frequent model, the Nubian sailor called Hadji-Ishmael, is almost hidden within the immensity of the temple architecture. Indeed, the massive scale of the mortuary temples Du Camp encountered in Egypt led him to believe they were palaces. Suitably centered for a modern-day Instagram post, the carefully cropped published photograph is somewhat less arresting than the corresponding proof print (2005.100.376.84), where the broad band of shadow at the bottom edge adds to the overall drama of dark and light.
