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.

Vertumnus and Pomona
Object type: drawing
Date: 1700 – 1770
Materials: chalk
Artist: françois boucher
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1703 – 1770
Subjects: putti,vertumnus,pomona

Boucher depicts here a well-known story from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit, was so devoted to her orchards that she took no notice of suitors. The god Vertumnus transformed himself into the form of a ragged old woman to gain her confidence. Boucher was fond of the subject and had already portrayed it on several occasions, including an overdoor for the royal Château de la Muette in 1749, a design for the Beauvais tapestry manufactory in 1757, and within an oval medallion for the Gobelins tapestries woven beginning in 1764 for Croome Court. In his virtuouso manner of handling the chalk, Boucher is here akin to Jean-Honoré Fragonard, his most famous student.

The Flemish Picture Gallery, the Mansion of Thomas Hope, Duchess Street, Portland Place

Materials: watercolor
Artist: robert william billings
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: british
Artist dates: 1813 – 1874
Subjects: interiors

In 1799 Thomas Hope, the famous architect, traveller and collector, purchased Duchess House, London from the Dowager Lady Warwick and set about remodelling the original Robert Adam building. The first stage was finished by 1801 then, in 1819, a Flemish Picture Gallery was added to Hope's own designs, with William Atkinson acting as builder. The fifty by twenty foot space at the rear of the house had a flat coffered ceiling and raised clerestory to light the collection of Dutch and Flemish paintings inherited from a brother Henry Philip Hope. Pictures hung on the walls, and on a mahogany screen running the length of the room equipped with hinges to allow the works to swing out, and fitted with comparments to hold books and folios of engravings. Hope designed this feature, and the rest of the furnishings, and allowed public access on Mondays during the Season (admittance obtained through recommendation or letter of reference). Billings probably made this drawing after 1833, after training under John Britton, and before 1851, when the house was demolished.

Artist: george washington maher
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1864 – 1926

Chicago architect George W. Maher was one of many Americans who embraced the English Arts and Crafts movement, incorporating into his residential designs an emphasis on simplicity, natural forms, and respect for materials. This silk and cotton Portière hung over a doorway in Maher's James A. Patten house in Evanston, Illinois, built in 1901. The highly stylized and linear thistle motif created for this panel and other elements of the Patten house by Maher and designer Louis J. Millet helped achieve the decorative rhythm and unity that Maher believed was essential to the successful design of any residence.

Courtesans Parodying Kanzan and Jittoku

Materials: gold, ink, paper
Culture: japanese
Artist: kinpūsha toyomaro
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: japanese
Artist dates: 1800 – 1833
Subjects: scrolls,women

At first glance, the scene appears to simply show two gorgeously garbed and coiffed courtesans in natural poses, one with a brush and paper and one holding a broom as she toys with a hairpin. But things are not always as they seem in such paintings of the pleasure quarters. The juxtaposition of two figures, one with a broom and the other with a handscroll, immediately calls to mind the Zen-painting theme of the madcap monks Kanzan and Jittoku (Chinese: Hanshan and Shide) who lived in Tang China. They had a reputation for rebelling against the conformity of social norms, and Kanzan was famous for his “Cold Mountain” poems. Kinpūsha Toyomaro was a pupil of Kitagawa Utamaro (1753?–1806), who created paintings of female beauties and drew illustrations for popular novels.

Shah Jahan Hunting Blackbuck with Trained Cheetahs
Date: 1710 – 1715
Materials: gold, ink, paper, watercolor
Culture: western indian, rajasthan, udaipur

This is one of a small group of refined, naturalistic paintings in the Mughal manner made at the Mewar court at Udaipur, Rajasthan, in the beginning of the eighteenth century, during the reign of the Maharana Sangram Singh (r. 1710–34). This work is unusual because it commemorates a hunt that occurred in the middle of the previous century: the portrait of the equestrian rider appears to be that of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor (r. 1628–58). Paintings alluding to former Mughal emperors were made at a number of Rajput courts in the eighteenth century, when artists were perhaps inspired by Mughal works that had entered those princely collections over the previous half century, as recent studies of court studio inventories, including Udaipur, have demonstrated. The Mughal emperor is seen on horseback entering the scene upper left accompanied by his huntsmen (shikaris) on foot. They are mostly dressed in hunting green and stalk the prey, a herd of deer with trained cheetahs, through a landscape of undulating rocky hillocks and light foliage. The deer have likely been drinking at the silvered pool but now scatter as they become aware of the hunt. One has already fallen prey to a cheetah.

Wine pot in the shape of a peach (cadogan type)
Object type: wine pot
Date: 1725 – 1725
Materials: enamel, gold, hard paste porcelain
Techniques: polychrome
Artist: meissen manufactory
Artist role: manufactory
Artist nationality: german
Artist dates: 1710 – 9999
Subjects: children,men,women,palms

This unusual teapot is modeled in the form of a flattened peach; the spout and handle are joined to the body by means of short branches with leaves. With no opening at the top, the teapot was filled from a hole in the base that was plugged with a cork. The Meissen potters copied Chinese porcelain wine pots for the shape of the teapot, but the painted decoration is entirely European in concept, despite its seemingly Asian subject matter. One side of the teapot is decorated with figures in exotic dress in front of a palm tree; the other depicts three figures in similar dress preparing tea. This type of scene is known by the term chinoiserie, which refers to the fanciful depictions of life in an imagined and exotic Far East. These vignettes of life in Asia reflect the European fascination with this unknown part of the world, and have little basis in reality. Understood as such, the chinoiseries that decorate Meissen porcelain of the 1720s are often painted with enormous skill, humor, and a playful spirit that makes them among the finest examples of the genre.
