Photographers such as Baldus and Marville, now considered undisputed great masters of 19th-century photography, rarely made non-commissioned work. Around 1855 Baldus recorded the massive rebuilding campaign of the Louvre.

Quilt, Log Cabin pattern, Straight Furrow variation
Object type: quilt
Date: 1875 – 1875
Materials: cotton, wool
Culture: american
Location: united states

This quilt, pieced mainly of printed-wool challises, is a good example of the American Log Cabin style first popular around the middle of the nineteenth century. A Log Cabin quilt is always made in square units or blocks, each with one diagonal half of dark strips and the other of light strips. These blocks can be set together in different ways to form any of a variety of overall patterns. In this Straight Furrow variation, a pattern is created by alternating the direction of the square blocks as they are joined across the width of the quilt. In the Light and Dark variation (1973.159), the squares are placed to create a pattern of light and dark diamond shapes. The technique of stitching a Log Cabin quilt differs from that employed for most pieced quilts (except for Crazy quilts) in that the small strips of fabric are anchored to a square of foundation fabric. Although both the Museum's bed covers are quilted around the edges of each small strip of fabric, it is not unusual for Log Cabin quilts to be unquilted. The quilt top is made up of what amounts to a double layer of wool strips in addition to the foundation layer and thus is heavier than most pieced tops. Therefore, Log Cabin quilts are commonly finished without batting between the layers and with decorative threads at intervals tying the front to the backing.

This vase, along with its mate by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle, was part of a set of four designed for the royal Château de Choisy by the architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel. None of the vases, however, was ever sent to Choisy. The Museum's pair was given by Louis XV to the marquis de Marigny, the marquise de Pompadour's brother, who placed them in his own château at Ménars, where they remained until the beginning of this century. The other pair, decorated with the attributes of Spring, was made by Jacques Verbeckt and is divided between the Musée du Louvre in Paris and the château at Malmaison.

Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara of the Lion's Roar, or Simhanada Avalokiteshvara (Shi Hou Guanyin)
Object type: figure
Date: 1467 – 1633
Materials: pigment, wood
Culture: chinese
Subjects: lions,buddhism,avalokiteshvara,bodhisattvas

Avalokiteshvara (the Bodhisattva of Compassion) and Manjushri (the Bodhisattva of Wisdom) are identifiable by the fact that both, at times, appear atop lions. As such, they are said to assume the form of Simhanada, or the Lion's Roar, which is a reference to the intensity of the moment of enlightenment. Here, the lion's recumbent pose and the bodhisattva's sidewise posture suggest that this sculpture represents Simhanada Avalokiteshvara, although the headdress does not bear the image of a seated Buddha, which is Avalokiteshvara's standard identifying attribute. Depictions of Simhanada Avalokiteshvara developed in India around the eleventh or twelfth century and appeared in China during the twelfth.
Three Captives
Object type: print
Date: 1505 – 1505
Materials: paper
Techniques: engraving
Location: italy
Artist: jacopo de' barbari

Jacopo de’ Barbari was an Italian painter and printmaker active in the courts of Saxony, in present-day Germany, during the early 16th century. Albrecht Dürer met Barbari in Venice and was reportedly fascinated by Barbari’s idiosyncratic approach to human proportions, which led to Dürer’s own treatise on the subject (published in 1528). For this engraving Barbari depicted the three bound nude male figures each in a different pose, showing either the front, side, or back. Artists often adopted this conceit in order to prove their mastery of the body in three dimensions. Here, the figures’ languid, somewhat attenuated physiques evidence the prolonged length of their captivity.
