PRX11961473 The illustration shows different views of the Longhorn Cowfish (Lactoria cornuta). The fish has a box-shaped body armored with bony plates and characteristic horn-like projections on its head. Native to the coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific, this slow-swimming fish feeds on algae, sponges, and small invertebrates. When threatened, it can secrete a toxic substance that is poisonous to other marine inhabitants.

DRC701082 Until the advent of modern chemical glues, carpenter’s glue was widely used for bonding. A hard brittle gelatin made by boiling horn, hoof and fish bones, it is supplied to the joiner in toffee-coloured slabs. The glue is broken into small bits and put into the inner pot of a double kettle. Water is put into the outer pot, the inner pot set inside and the water is heated until the bits of glue melt together to a runny consistency. The glue is applied with a brush to the joints to form a bond stronger than the wood itself. Glue-pots were often made of copper since this metal was a good conductor of heat. This selection of nineteenth-century glue kettles ranges from the soldered and flanged item made by Bass & Co. to the tiny double kettle. The various techniques in manufacture are a tribute to the coppersmiths’ art: hand-beating to form the basic shape; overlap dovetailing; making rolled seams, and brazing and riveting.

XOS8983801 Landscape with the port of Santa Marinella (Main title)Gellée, Claude (known as the Lorrain)According to the "Liber Veritatis", Pope Urban VIII commissioned Claude Gellée, probably around 1637-1638, to paint two small pictures on copper, one depicting a view of Castel Gondolfo, the papal summer residence built for Urban VIII, and the other a view of the port of Santa Marinella, where he had built foundations. Although Claude Lorrain visited the site for documentation purposes, he did not draw up a topographical view of the port of Santa Marinella. Rather, it is a whimsical view. The group of people in the foreground adds picturesqueness, but in no way supports the subject. It lends a touch of narrative to the work, through the rider's outstretched arm pointing to the harbor and the insertion of the winding path leading to it. More than the harbor, which can be seen in the mist, the real subject is the light. Claude Lorrain focuses the eye on the warm, luminous sun, which spreads a golden filter over the landscape. The gesture of one of the riders is more likely to refer to the rising sun than to the developing port.Inventory number: PDUT872

PRX11972054 The upper illustration shows a pair of robins on a fruit tree branch with yellow and orange fruits. The birds are depicted with their characteristic orange-red throat and speckled brownish upperparts. In the lower part of the image, the corresponding skeletons of the birds are shown in opposing positions, demonstrating the fine bone structure of these songbirds. Robins are widespread throughout Europe and inhabit woods, gardens, and parks, where they feed mainly on insects and small invertebrates. The depiction demonstrates the naturalistic interest in comparative anatomy in the 18th century. By Johann Daniel Meyer (1713-1757).

UIS5066837 Sand Glasses Pocket sand glass, c 1500. (sablier de poche) This portable sand glass is enclosed in a brass case. The timekeeping depends on the regular flow of sand through a small orifice. Early sand glasses, such as this one, consisted of a pair of glass bulbs with their necks in contact with a metal plate into which a small hole had been drilled, and which were bound together by thread. By the middle of the 18th century they were blown in one piece, with a small hole through which the sand could be inserted. The time taken for one bulb of the sand glass to empty is a definite interval, at the end of which the glass can be turned over and the process repeated. Sand glasses are useful for measuring long periods of time, but prove inadequate for short time intervals. ©SSPL/Science Museum

COU5892272 The ancient poet Ovid recounts how Latona, the mother of the twin mythological deities Apollo and Diana, turned a group of inhospitable peasants into frogs. They had stirred up the mud at the bottom of a pond to prevent Latona from drinking from it. The scene takes place in Lycia, a region in Asia Minor (now Turkey but then under Roman rule). König made many miniature pictures for collectors. He often painted on copper, a smooth and luminous surface that allowed for fine detail. This painting copies a composition by the German artist Adam Elsheimer (1578-1610), one of the greatest small-scale painters of his day.

DGC7207178 This plate represents the Pyrrhic dance which was danced by young men in armour. Some historians think that Pyrrhic was the son of Achilles and inventor of this dance. In this drawing the dance is combined with acrobatics and particularly of the sort that Homer describes in the Iliad and Odyssey. It was possibly performed as a prelude to a play although the column in the background could indicate a theatrical representation. The woman acrobat holds a simpulum (small dish used for sacrifice) with the toes of her right foot and is trying to take some wine out of the large vase and pour it into the smaller one which she holds with her left foot. The woman in the upper left is coaching her. In the lower part is a Pyrrhic dance.Scenes taken from the collection of Ancient Greek vases formed by the Scottish diplomat, archaeologist and antiquarian, Sir William Hamilton (1730-1803), British ambassador to the court at Naples 1764-1800;
