Bronze shield boss
Object type: shield bos
Date: 700 – 601
Materials: bronze
Culture: italic

Convex bronze discs, often with punched or incised ornament, were frequently attached to wooden, leather, or bronze shields. Many of the shields found in seventh century B.C. Italic and Etruscan chamber tombs were made for ceremonial or funerary purposes; they were too fragile to have had any practical use in combat.
Secretary Cabinet
Object type: furniture
Date: 1735 – 1735
Materials: brass, glass, gold, lacquer, wood
Location: england
Artist: giles grendey

Giles Grendey was a cabinetmaker and timber merchant with workshops near St. Paul’s, London. Unusually for an English cabinetmaker of his time, he had a broad international clientele: a fire that struck his premises in August 1731 destroyed over £1000 worth of furniture (approximately $37,000 in today’s currency) described as “pack’d for Exportation against the next morning.” In fact, Grendey’s most famous commission came from a Spanish client, the Duke of Infantado, for whose castle at Lazcano in northern Spain he supplied a suite of over seventy-seven pieces of furniture in the late 1730s. This cabinet is decorated in a style similar to the Infantado suite, in red and gold japanning, the English name for imitation lacquer.

The cabinet combines some classical elements, like the broken pediment and flame-like finials at the top, with chinoiserie (Chinese-inspired) figures and scenes done in gold and silver. On the interior doors, a lady holding a branch faces a warrior holding a banner. The slope front is richly decorated with figures riding in a chariot, while others lounge in summer pavilions. The drawers and slides display landscapes with horsemen and other figures, birds, and foliage.

Jar (hu or zhong)
Object type: vessel
Materials: bronze
Techniques: gilding
Location: china

The dragon became prominent during the Han as an auspicious creature associated with imperial authority and with the ever-changing nature of the universe. Since the dragon was endowed with the same dynamic energy that animated clouds and vapors, it was graphically combined with expanding and contracting patterns of great imagination and vitality. Here, dragons with interlaced trunks merge with scrolling "cloud" patterns to create continuous bands of ornament. This fluent decor was incised into the bronze after casting. Filings of gold and silver were then liquefied in separate baths of hot mercury and these butter-like solutions brushed onto the bronze; the vessel was reheated to vaporize the mercury and then burnished, leaving a thin but brilliant two-toned surface. This technique, variously known as amalgam-, mercury-, or fire-gilding, created a splendid object with economic expenditure of precious metals.

'Hartstochten na J.B. Greuze' bestaat uit twee of drie genummerde reeksen. (Sommige nummers komen drie keer voor op drie verschillende afbeeldingen.) Binnen deze omslag bevinden zich achttien verschillende afbeeldingen. Mogelijk heeft dit te maken met de twee momenten waarop Daiwaille de reeks uitgaf, ten tijden van zijn directeurschap aan de Rijksakademie in Amsterdam en daarna als zelfstandige. De omslag behoort waarschijnlijk bij een van deze twee series. Zie Marres-Schretlen, 2001.

Teatrum Bordeos [Transitorium Caesaris in later editions], from a Series of Prints depicting (reconstructed) Buildings from Roman Antiquity
Object type: album print ornament architecture
Techniques: engraving
Artist: monogrammist g.a. with the caltrop
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: italian
Artist dates: 1535 – 1535
Subjects: buildings

Perspectival view of a building referred to here as the ‘Teatrum Bordeos’, but changed in a later state to ‘Transitorium Caesaris’. The depiction shows the building in a ruined state and focuses on the entrance gate and the left side of the arcade of the amphitheater. The architecture does not closely resemble the ruins of the building in Bordeaux, and this rendering, likely conceived as an ekphrasis may conflate elements from several different surviving examples into one building. The print is part of a group of architectural prints depicting buildings from Roman Antiquity, ranging from triumphal arches to bath houses, temples and palaces in Italy, France and Spain. Some of the buildings have been artificially reconstructed based on Medieval descriptions, while others are depicted in their ruinous states. The plates are known in several (uncatalogued) states, and have undergone minor changes over time. Several titles of buildings have been changed, and the plates have been cropped as a result of plate cracks and oxidation. Most copper plates for this series have been engraved on both sides. This print is taken from the same plate as the 'Tenplus Veneris'. This group of prints was purchased as part of an an album in 1926, but taken apart by the Museum in 1934. The album appears to have been compiled in the 17th century, although the majority of prints date from the 16th century. The larger part of the prints is focused on mythological subjects and objects and architecture from Antiquity. The album was part of the collection of the architect Hippolyte Destailleur and was sold in the sale of his books and prints in 1895. The Museum acquired the album at G. Rapilly & Fils in 1926. Where the album had been kept in the mean time is unclear and several prints were taken out in this period. The museum's numbering does not reflect the order of the original album, but Destailleur's numbering system is retained on the inidividual sheets, allowing for the reconstruction of its original content.

Incense Burner from a Set of Five-Piece Altar Set (Wugong)
Object type: incense burner
Date: 1736 – 1795
Materials: copper, enamel, gilt bronze
Techniques: enamel
Culture: chinese

Cloisonné is the technique of creating designs on metal vessels with colored glass paste placed within enclosures made of copper or bronze wires, which have been bent or hammered into the desired patterns. Known as cloisons (French for "partitions"), the enclosures are generally either glued or soldered onto the metal body. The glass paste, or enamel—which gets its color from metallic oxides—is painted into the contained areas of the design. The vessel is usually fired at a relatively low temperature, about 800 degrees Celsius. Enamels tend to shrink during firing, and the process is repeated several times to fill in the design. Once this process is completed, the surface of the vessel is rubbed until the edges of the cloisons are visible.

Ten Kings of Hell
Object type: hanging scroll
Date: 1195 – 1195
Materials: ink, silk
Culture: chinese
Artist: jin chushi
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: chinese
Artist dates: 1167 – 1199
Subjects: kings,men,buddhism,demons,hell

This is one from a set of scrolls (30.76.290–.294) illustrating the theme of the Ten Kings of Hell, which developed during the second half of the Tang dynasty (618–907). The theme transforms the Indian Buddhist view of judgment after death into a typically Chinese bureaucratic process. Before being permitted to transmigrate into the next life, a soul is tried by a different king each week for seven weeks; it is sent to the eighth king on the hundredth day, to the ninth after a year, and to the tenth the third year after death. Here, each scroll shows a king—assisted by a scribe and other officials—examining and passing sentence on the souls of the dead; in the foreground demons punish the wicked. Most extant Song and Yuan dynasty Buddhist paintings were preserved in Japan; many had been taken there from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, an important port city for Japanese merchants and pilgrims. Inscriptions on the present paintings state that they were made in the studio of Jin Chushi, a Buddhist layman in Mingzhou, the name for Ningbo before it was changed to Qingyuanfu in 1195; the paintings, therefore, must date prior to that year. Stylistically, they are extremely close to The Five Hundred Luohans in the Zen Buddhist temple Daitokuji, Kyoto, which were also made in Ningbo and are dated 1178. The vivid drawing and the intense colors of these works are typical of the best Buddhist narrative paintings of the period.

The Brahmin “heretic” Kamatha performs penances to test his faith before his conversion to Jainism. Four fires burn in altars and a fifth is represented as the blazing sun, seen to the left of the Brahmin’s head. In the lower register, Parsvanatha, the twenty-third jina, overseen by a lesser god (deva) on an elephant, rescues a snake from a woodcutter who disturbs it in a log. This snake proves to be the Naga king Dharana, who later protects the jina from floods and other calamities.
