Date: ca. 1427-1352 B.C..Ostraca (plural for ostracon) are potsherds used as surfaces on which to write or draw. The term is used, by extension, to refer to chips of limestone, which were employed for similar purposes. Despite their humble appearances, ostraca bear a wide range of images and texts, including administrative documents, literary texts, and depictions of royal and divine figures. The texts were mostly written with reed pen and ink of two colors, red and black, and inscribed in Hieratic, the cursive script of ancient Egypt throughout most of its periods. This ostracon bears ten identity markers referring to royal necropolis workmen. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3636453 Autumn; Study for an Engraving. Artist: Hendrick Goltzius (Netherlandish, Mühlbracht 1558-1617 Haarlem). Dimensions: 7 5/8 x 5 11/16 in. (19.4 x 14.4 cm). Date: n.d..This is the preliminary drawing for the third print in the series of seasons which Goltzius published around 1594. The strong pen and ink outlines and the tonal values indicated with wash were meant to guide the engraver, who was expected to translate the washes into patterns of burin lines. Jan Saenredam, who worked for Goltzius from around 1589 to 1601, was most likely the engraver of the print.Autumn is represented here by figures dressed in sixteenth-century garb. The wreath of vines on the head of the boy on the right, and the pointed ear of the man in the center (which is more pronounced in the final print), indicate that they are Bacchus, the ancient god of wine, and a satyr.

alb3675517 The Golden Age. Artist: Joachim Wtewael (Netherlandish, Utrecht 1566-1638 Utrecht). Dimensions: 8 7/8 x 12 in. (22.5 x 30.5 cm). Date: 1605.The Utrecht painter Joachim Wtewael was among the most sophisticated of Netherlandish Mannerists, as is evident from this exquisite cabinet picture on copper, dated 1605. The subject is taken from the opening pages of Ovid's Metamorphoses (I, 89 ff.), which describe a time before the ages of silver, bronze, and iron when "spring was everlasting . streams of sweet nectar flowed," and mankind, "without a law," did right and lived contentedly.

alb3604177 The Sofa. Artist: Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, Albi 1864-1901 Saint-André-du-Bois). Dimensions: 24 3/4 x 31 7/8 in. (62.9 x 81 cm). Date: ca. 1894-96.Lautrec set out to document the lives of prostitutes in a series of pictures executed between 1892 and 1896. At first he made sketches in brothels, but he was apparently hampered by insufficient lighting and had his models pose in his studio. He appreciated the naturalness of sitters like this lesbian couple, "who stretch themselves out on the divans...entirely without pretensions." The candid image may take its cue from Degas's monotypes of brothel scenes and erotic Japanese prints. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3604306 Virgin and Child. Artist: Bartolomé Estebán Murillo (Spanish, Seville 1617-1682 Seville). Dimensions: 65 1/4 x 43 in. (165.7 x 109.2 cm). Date: ca. 1670-72.Like Zurbarán and Velázquez, Murillo was trained in Seville, where he spent his whole career. This painting of the Madonna and Child formed part of the collection of the Marqués de Santiago, who owned a number of outstanding works by the artist. The popularity of Murillo's paintings of the Madonna and Child derives from his ability to endow a timeworn theme with a quality of intimacy and sweetness. The infant's attention has, in this picture, been momentarily diverted from nursing by the presence of the viewer. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3603495 The Adoration of the Shepherds. Artist: El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos) and Workshop (Greek, Iráklion (Candia) 1540/41-1614 Toledo). Dimensions: 43 1/2 x 25 5/8 in. (110.5 x 65.1 cm). Date: ca. 1612-14.This is a smaller version of an altarpiece by El Greco painted for the chapel in Santo Domingo el Antiguo in Toledo, where he was buried (the picture is now in the Prado, Madrid). It is likely that for this work the painter was helped by his assistants. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3653660 Captain John Gell. Artist: Gilbert Stuart (American, North Kingston, Rhode Island 1755-1828 Boston, Massachusetts). Dimensions: 94 1/2 x 58 1/2 in. (240 x 148.6 cm). Date: 1785.In 1785 the British naval officer John Gell (1738-1806) had just completed his duty on the seventy-gun Monarca, which he had commanded in a series of battles against the French. For this portrait, Stuart used as a model Sir Joshua Reynolds's heroic "Commodore Augustus Keppel" (1752; National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, UK). In homage to Reynolds, Stuart employed a combination of fine and slapdash brushwork, conveying an image of both heroism and naturalism. He exhibited "Captain John Gell" at London's Royal Academy of Arts in 1785, when the British portraitist John Hoppner commented that it was "admirably well-painted without trickery to dazzle the eye or mislead the judgment.".

alb3618360 Cardinal Fernando Niño de Guevara (1541-1609). Artist: El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos) (Greek, Iráklion (Candia) 1540/41-1614 Toledo). Dimensions: 67 1/4 x 42 1/2in. (170.8 x 108cm). Date: ca. 1600.This intense portrait depicts Fernando Niño de Guevara (1541-1609), who in 1596 was named cardinal and is dressed as such here. In 1599 he became Inquisitor General of Spain but resigned in 1602 to serve the rest of his life as Archbishop of Seville. The painting probably dates from the spring of 1600 when the cardinal was in Toledo with Philip III and members of the Madrid court. El Greco had lived in Venice and in the Farnese Palace in Rome, where Titian's portraits (such as those of the Farnese Pope Paul III) would have revealed to the Greek painter the psychological possibilities of portraiture.

alb3610341 The Card Players. Artist: Paul Cézanne (French, Aix-en-Provence 1839-1906 Aix-en-Provence). Dimensions: 25 3/4 x 32 1/4 in. (65.4 x 81.9 cm). Date: 1890-92.This is probably the first in a series of five paintings that Cézanne devoted to peasants playing cards. Enlisting local farmhands to serve as models, he may have drawn inspiration for his genre scene from a seventeenth-century painting by the Le Nain brothers in the museum in his hometown of Aix. The Metropolitan's picture was followed by a version twice its size, which includes the additional figure of a standing child at right (Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia). In the last three compositions, Cézanne continuously pared away details, focusing on just a pair of card players. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
