"What Are You Laughing At? To the Victor Belong the Spoils" (from "Harper's Weekly," vol. 15, p. 1097)
Object type: print
Techniques: engraving
Artist: thomas nast
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: american, born germany
Artist dates: 1840 – 1902
Subjects: caricature,politics

New York’s famously corrupt politician William M. "Boss" Tweed appears here as a defeated Roman soldier. Nast’s critical satires of Tweed appeared regularly in Harper’s Weekly and helped persuade New York voters to oust the Democrats in November 1871. This ended Tweed’s corrupt leadership of Tammany Hall—a political machine that embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars over three years and bribed critics into silence. Nast compares the defeated Tweed to the Roman consul Caius Marius, exiled in disgrace to the ruined city of Carthage. Wearing a crown of dollar signs, a gouty Tweed leans on an empty treasury box, grips a broken sword, and glares in defiant disbelief.

Ewer
Object type: ewer
Date: 801 – 1000
Materials: earthenware
Location: iran

This ceramic ewer was excavated at the site of Tepe Madrasa in Nishapur. Nishapur was a vital city in the early and middle Islamic periods, located along one of the main trajectories that connected Iran and West Asia Islamic lands with Central Asia and China. These itineraries are often referred by the term ‘Silk routes’ but were in fact crucial to the movement of constellations of materials and objects, as well as people and ideas. The diverse population of Nishapur and its surroundings, from the better-researched elite groups of merchants, land-owning aristocracy, and literates, to the less-known artisans, farmers, miners, and servants, were instrumental in adapting global cultural trends to create their own distinctive visual languages. This is seen in the material remains of everyday life in medieval Nishapur – from pots and pans to lighting devices, inkwells, textiles and trimmings, jewelry, games and toys, talismanic devices, weapons, coins, and architectural fragments. Nishapur lost its political prominence due to a series of earthquakes and invasions that peaked in the thirteenth century. Today, the medieval city is a vast archaeological area, while the relatively small modern city is situated to its north. Instead, Mashhad, a major pilgrimage site, emerged as a major prosperous metropolis in the region. Between 1935 and 1948, the "Persian Expedition" of the Metropolitan Museum of Art excavated at several sites at Nishapur under an agreement with the Iranian authorities. The recovered artifacts were divided in half between the two countries, resulting in over four thousand objects in the Met’s collection today. As part of the larger "Persian Expedition" project at Nishapur, American archaeologists and hundreds of Iranian workers excavated a mound named Tepe Madrasa. There, they uncovered an architectural complex which they tentatively associated with a palace or governmental center because of the solidity of the built structures and the extent and variety of wall decorations (including carved and painted brickwork, glazed tiles, wall paintings, and carved and painted stuccoes). This, together with the ceramic and metal finds, aided in attributing the site to the ninth or tenth century onwards. A mosque, refurbished multiple times up to the late eleventh century, was also unearthed, yielding the remains of a monumental entrance with a large terracotta inscription bearing the titles of a sultan (39.40.58, .60–64). Several twelfth century tombstones were also unearthed, showing the shift in purpose of what was earlier a residential area.

Portraits of the governors general. At the head of the VOC administration in Asia was the governor general, the chairman of the East Indies Council, which met in Batavia. The Council's assembly chamber at the Castle in Batavia was the focal point of Dutch power. Along the walls hung the portraits of all the past governors general, symbolising the continuity of the Dutch presence. Smaller copies at the Company's offices in the Netherlands represented the VOC's power in Asia. The copies displayed here probably come from the VOC's Rotterdam Chamber. Some of the portraits from the series that hung in Batavia are displayed above in the VOC gallery that circles this room.

Terracotta female figure
Object type: statuette of a woman phi type
Date: 1400 – 1300
Materials: terracotta
Culture: aegean, helladic or mycenaean
Subjects: women

Mycenaean statuettes of this type are named for their resemblance to the shape of the Greek letter phi (φ). Although highly schematic, phi figures are identified as female by the presence of long dresses and clearly defined breasts. Examples have been discovered in funerary, religious, and domestic contexts. Their symbolism is not clear, and their use probably varied according to circumstance. This example has a circular body completely covered with painted wavy lines, perhaps indicating folds of drapery. Breasts are indicated, although the arms are little more than bulges hanging down at the sides. Her face is pinched, with eyes applied as separate slips of clay.

Bagolin belongs to a series of fifteen porcelains depicting commedia dell'arte characters on pedesta;s that were inspired by garden statues at the Schönborn Palace in Vienna. The series might have been executed for Johann Friedrich Karl von Ostein, the elector of Mains (1743–63) and the patron of the Höchst manufacture, who was closely related to the Schönborns and often sojourned in their Viennese residence. In fact, the limited edition of these porcelain figures points to an exclusive private commission, which unfortunately remains undocumented.[1] The name Bagolin appears on the engraving by Johann Jacob Wolrab (Nürnbberg, ca. 1720) that served as a model for this porcelain sculpture by Johann Christoph Ludwig von Lücke. Bagolin was not a popular theatrical character and appeared only sporadically on French stages. In the plays Arlequin soldat et bagage, performed by the Iatlian Comedians in 1673, and Les Bagolins, published at The Hague in 1705, he incarnated a vulgar and dim-witted suitor of a young lady, competing unsuccessfully with her lover Léandre. In 1718, Giorgio Maria Raparini listed Bagolin among dozens of zanni, or stock servant figures, from the commedia dell'arte. The inscription on Wolrab's print also refers to him as a servant, while the illustrated play Amor vehementer quidem flagrans... (1729) associates him specifically with Pantalone's household. There is no evidence that Bagolin was personified by a particular Italian comedian, as were Mezzetin or Scaramouche. In fact, in 1673, his part was played by the Harlequin Dominique Bionclelli. Like its printed source, the present Höchst figure sports a guitar and wears generic servant garb: a loose beret, a thigh-length jacket with ruff collar, long pants, and a cape. The porcelain painter likened it to Mezzetin by covering the costume with multicolored vertical stripes. Exactly the same iconographic type appears under different names in eighteenth-century visual sources, including Mezzetin and Jean Gurgulo. These inconsistencies show that the iconography and nomenclature of commedia dell'arte characters were subject to both artistic license and commercial considerations, such as the effort to maximize sales by diversifying as much as possible the market offering, be it prints or porcelain figures.

Agostino Mitelli, the son of the well-known printmaker Giuseppe Maria Mitelli, had a brief career as a printmaker in Bologna. This prints is part of set of six etchings after Stefano della Bella that represent a type of caricature that was very popular in the seventeenth century. Here, several dwarf-like figures play musical instruments while striking exaggerated poses. Captions running along the bottom of the prints add to the humor of the works by identifying the figures and their relationships. In the uppermost print, the scene of a man playing a guitar to a woman holding a hearing horn is described as “beauties unheard.” In the lower print, the man standing confidently in the middle is described as the “great bandy-legged corporal.” Such characters also appeared in Italian theater and would have been recognized by those who bought these prints.
