alb3632892 Autumn Ivy. Artist: Ogata Kenzan (Japanese, 1663-1743). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: Image: 8 3/8 x 10 7/8 in. (21.3 x 27.6 cm)Overall: 44 7/8 x 22 1/4 in. (114 x 56.5 cm). Date: after 1732.Although ceramics were his forte, Kenzan occasionally tested his skills as a painter, and there is a rugged energy to his works on paper that effectively complements his idiosyncratic, expressive calligraphy. This image recalls a famous episode from the tenth-century Ise Stories (Ise monogatari) in which the protagonist encounters an itinerant monk along an ivy-strewn path on Mount Utsu.Kenzan's freely inscribed waka (thirty-one syllable Japanese poem) reads:Kakaru shimowaga aki naranumatsukaze ychiru o urami no tsuta no momijibaThough not yet winds through the pinesblow all around and I dread they'll scatterthe crimson leaves of ivy. --Trans.

alb3631674 The Fortune-Teller. Artist: Georges de La Tour (French, Vic-sur-Seille 1593-1653 Lunéville). Dimensions: 40 1/8 x 48 5/8 in. (101.9 x 123.5 cm). Date: probably 1630s.While an old gypsy crone tells his fortune, a naive youth is robbed by her accomplices, a subject popular among Caravaggesque painters throughout Europe in the seventeenth century. La Tour's painting can be interpreted as a genre or theatrical scene, or as an allusion to the parable of the prodigal son. The inscription on the painting includes the name of the town where La Tour lived, Lunéville in Lorraine. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3680758 Merry Company on a Terrace. Artist: Jan Steen (Dutch, Leiden 1626-1679 Leiden). Dimensions: 55 1/2 x 51 3/4 in. (141 x 131.4 cm). Date: ca. 1670.In this late painting of about 1673-75, Steen casts himself as the inebriated innkeeper on the left. The artist's second wife, Maria, probably modeled for the provocatively posed hostess (she wears an apron) in the center. Her glass and the fat man's jug are sexually suggestive, but the woman's familiarity with the young musician and the shape of his cittern suggest that he has more to offer her. The overdressed boy serves as a marginal remark about the adults' behavior: a bridled horse and a whip usually stand for Temperance, but not when hitched to a spoiled brat and his indignant dog. The man with a sausage pinned to his hat is Hans Wurst, a fool familiar from the comic stage. Steen wittily blends symbols and themes (for example, child-rearing and the Garden of Love) into an original creation, quite as the picture's style seems to blend oil and water by mixing the manners of Gerard ter Borch and Jacob Jordaens. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Author: Jan Steen.

alb3679191 "Sixth Month" from Fujiwara no Teika's "Birds and Flowers of the Twelve Months". Artist: Ogata Kenzan (Japanese, 1663-1743). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: Image: 6 1/4 x 9 1/8 in. (15.9 x 23.2 cm)Overall with mounting: 43 1/4 x 19 in. (109.9 x 48.3 cm)Overall with knobs: 43 1/4 x 20 5/8 in. (109.9 x 52.4 cm). Date: 1743.These small paintings were separated from a group of twelve representing plants and animals symbolic of the twelve months, each inscribed with two poems. For the sixth month, the poems celebrate tokonatsu (wild pinks) and the cormorant, a bird used for night fishing:Okata no hikage ni ito minazuki no sora sae oshiki tokonatsu no hanaMijika yo no ukawa ni noboru kagaribi no hayaku sugiyuku minazuki no sora Even though most people dread the sixth month since the sun is so bright,if wild pinks are in bloom then it does have its charms.On these short nights, flames in iron baskets on cormorant fishing boats pass by quickly and light up the sky of the sixth month.

alb3893561 The Torment of Saint Anthony. Date/Period: Ca. 1487-88. Painting. Tempera and oil on panel. Height: 470 mm (18.50 in); Width: 337 mm (13.26 in). Author: Michelangelo.

alb3672860 Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564). Artist: Attributed to Daniele da Volterra (Italian, Volterra 1509-1566 Rome). Dimensions: 34 3/4 x 25 1/4 in. (88.3 x 64.1 cm). Date: probably ca. 1544.This unfinished portrait has recently been identified as the work of Daniele da Volterra, Michelangelo's faithful follower and the author of a bronze bust of the great Florentine artist. Indeed, an inventory drawn up after Daniele's death lists "a portrait of Michelangelo on panel." It was probably painted about 1545, when Michelangelo would have been seventy. It was the source for numerous copies.The portrait looks unfinished, but Daniele has fully described the sculptor's features and his left hand, almost as though recalling Michelangelo's notion that, "It is necessary to keep one's compass in one's eyes and not in the hand, for the hands execute, but the eye judges.". Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Author: Attributed to Daniele da Volterra.

alb3629008 "Fourth Month" from Fujiwara no Teika's "Birds and Flowers of the Twelve Months". Artist: Ogata Kenzan (Japanese, 1663-1743). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: Image: 6 5/16 x 8 15/16 in. (16 x 22.7 cm)Overall with mounting: 43 1/4 x 19 in. (109.9 x 48.3 cm)Overall with knobs: 43 1/4 x 20 5/8 in. (109.9 x 52.4 cm). Date: 1743.Kenzan, brother of the painter and designer Ogata Korin (1658-1716), is best known as a potter but was also a gifted painter and calligrapher. This small painting was separated from a group of twelve representing plants and animals symbolic of the twelve months, each inscribed with two poems. The poems were taken from the Shuiguso, a collection of verse by the influential poet and calligrapher Fujiwara Teika (1162-1241). The poems from the fourth month refer to unohana (deutzia flowers) and to the hototogisu, a bird related to the cuckoo. They read:Shirotae no koromo hosu cho natsu no kite kakine mo tawa ni sakeru u no hana Hototogisu Shinobu no sato ni sato nare yo mada u no hana no tsuki matsu goro Robes of white clothshould be aired out, they say,just when summer arrivesand deutzia flowers in bloomcause the hedge to droop.In the village of Shinobuwhere the cuckoo dwells,its cry is now heard,while we await next monthwhen deutzia flowers bloom. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3624189 Cloître Saint-Amand, Rouen. Artist: Edmond Bacot (French, 1814-1875). Dimensions: 34.5 x 26.5 cm (13 9/16 x 10 7/16 in.). Date: 1852-53.In December 1852 Bacot, a man of independent means living in Caen, briefly visited the island of Jersey bringing resources gathered by the republicans of Caen and Bayeux for Victor Hugo and the exile community. He also carried with him photographs of the Gothic monuments of Normandy, pictures that Hugo described as "marvels." During the following year, Bacot sent additional photographs to the writer, including this one, about which Hugo wrote: "The old Gothic house is a particularly miraculous thing; mass and detail, strength in the shadows and perfection in the highlights, everything is there. I congratulate the sun for having a collaborator such as you." By photographing in strong sunlight and with a long lens, Bacot transformed the half-timbered walls and overhanging eaves of the cloister into patches of deep shadow and patterns of light. Such photographs articulated a highly romanticized view of the medieval--a view deeply colored by Hugo's own writings and poetic drawings of Gothic architecture. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3608035 The Gulf Stream. Artist: Winslow Homer (American, Boston, Massachusetts 1836-1910 Prouts Neck, Maine). Dimensions: 28 1/8 x 49 1/8 in. (71.4 x 124.8 cm). Date: 1899.Back in Prouts Neck, Maine, after one of his winter visits to the Bahamas, Homer painted this dramatic scene of imminent disaster. A man faces his demise on a dismasted, rudderless fishing boat, sustained by only a few stalks of sugarcane and threatened by sharks and a distant waterspout. He is oblivious to the schooner on the left horizon, which Homer later added to the canvas as a sign of hopeful rescue. Some art historians have read The Gulf Stream as symbolic, connecting it with the period's heightened racial tensions. The painting has also been interpreted as an expression of Homer's presumed sense of mortality and vulnerability following the death of his father. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3888559 Boccaccio and Fortune. Date/Period: Ca. 1413 - 1415. Folio. Tempera colors, gold leaf, gold paint, and ink on parchment. Height: 420 mm (16.53 in); Width: 296 mm (11.65 in). Author: UNKNOWN.

alb3653455 Joseph-Antoine Moltedo (born 1775). Artist: Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (French, Montauban 1780-1867 Paris). Dimensions: 29 5/8 x 22 7/8 in. (75.2 x 58.1 cm). Date: ca. 1810.Corsican by birth, Moltedo was an enterprising businessman and inventor, agent to the French clergy at the Vatican, and director of the Roman post office from 1803 until 1814. Painted during one of the most productive periods of Ingres's nascent career, this refined portrait belongs to a series of commissions he received from French officials in Napoleonic Rome. They are distinguished by the inclusion of Roman views as backdrops--in this case the Appian Way and the Colosseum--as well as by stormy gray skies, a Romantic conceit that serves as a foil to the calm and secure expressions of the men portrayed. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Author: JEAN AUGUSTE DOMINIQUE INGRES.

alb3604577 Diana and Actaeon (Diana Surprised in Her Bath). Artist: Camille Corot (French, Paris 1796-1875 Paris). Dimensions: 61 5/8 x 44 3/8 in. (156.5 x 112.7 cm). Date: 1836.From its imposing size to its refined execution, this painting is elegant testimony to Corot's ingenuity: the landscape appears surprisingly natural, yet it is painstakingly composed. The narrative, from Ovid's Metamorphoses, recounts the fate of a young hunter Actaeon as he encounters the naked figure of the goddess Diana and her nymphs enjoying a woodland bath. Diana, in a fit of embarrassed fury, splashes water on the unwitting hunter, transforming him into a deer. There is a marked difference between the general tight handling of paint and tonal contrasts, and the background on the left, which is sketchy and silvery in tone, typical of Corot's late style. A year before the artist died, he was asked to repaint this passage as a courtesy to the picture's new owner. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3617906 Terracotta statuette of an actor. Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: H. 4 1/8 in. (10.5 cm). Date: late 5th-early 4th century B.C..Fourteen of these figures are said to have been found together in a burial in Attica. They are among the earliest known statuettes of actors and are superbly executed and preserved. Originally they were brightly painted. They document the beginning of standardized characters and masks, indicating the popularity not of a specific figure but of types--the old man, the slave, the courtesan, etc.--that appeared repeatedly in different plays. By the mid-fourth century B.C., Attic examples or local copies were known throughout the Greek world, from Southern Russia to Spain. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3610670 Caricature of a Woman in a Large Hat. Artist: Enrico Caruso (Italian, 1873-1921). Dimensions: sheet: 14 x 10 in. (35.5 x 25.4 cm). Date: 1920.The famous tenor Caruso was a skilled amateur caricaturist who portrayed himself in operatic roles and drew humorous portraits of friends, as a release from his stressful professional life. Since 1903 Caruso had lived in New York for part of each year while performing at the Metropolitan Opera, and sent opera-related caricatures to La Follia, a local Italian-language newspaper. An inscription indicates that he created this sketch in Southampton in 1920, probably during a summer visit with his wife of two years, Dorothy Park Benjamin. Only a few rapidly applied lines were needed to define a well-dressed lady with bobbed hair, tired features and beaded necklace. The extended neck and overshadowing hat brim were slyly manipulated to make the subject resemble a mushroom. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
