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.

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

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

PFH2635839 The Bhairavnath Temple stands on the eastern side of Taumadhi Tol. Built under King Jagajjyoti Malla (1614-1637), the temple originally possessed only a single floor, but in 1718 Bhupatindra Malla and his son added two floors, and placed a golden roof on top. The temple is decicated to Bhairavnath, or Akash Bhairav, the destroyer of demons, who was installed 'for the protection of the country and the removal from sin and distress of the people'. The Bhairavnath Temple is the focus of the Bisket Jatra, the New Year celebrations in Bhaktapur (13-14 April). Small figures of Bhairavnath and his divine spouse Bhadrakali are carried on separate chariots around town, to finally meet at the Bhairavnath Temple in a riotous celebration. Local lore has it that Bhairavnath, when left to his own devices, can become very mean-spirited, and he is in a much better mood when his wife is around. The figure of the feared Bhairavnath, incidentally, is a mere 30 centimetres high, his equally obnoxious wife only 25.

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;

XCL499954 Chardin was already famous by 1730, when he began to paint small, sparse still lifes of kitchen utensils. He often used the same elements in his compositions, varying slightly the position of the objects and adding or subtracting a utensil-always carefully placing each in relation to the rest to achieve a balanced design. Chardin was the contemporary of François Boucher (1703-1770) and he taught Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806), but his work is a contrast to theirs, representing the naturalistic tendency that persisted alongside the more fashionable lightness, grace, and playfulness of the Rococo. Chardin discovered a hidden poetry in even the most humble objects, bringing the viewer into an earthly world experienced with directness and simplicity.
