alb3681147 Cuneiform tablet: administrative account of barley distribution with cylinder seal impression of a male figure, hunting dogs, and boars. Culture: Sumerian. Dimensions: 2.17 x 2.36 x 1.63 in. (5.5 x 6 x 4.15 cm). Date: ca. 3100-2900 B.C..Of the many legacies left by the ancient civilizations of southern Mesopotamia, the invention of writing is paramount. At the end of the fourth millennium B.C., written language developed in the region, first as pictographs and then evolving into abstract forms called cuneiform. The pictographs, like the ones on this tablet, are called proto-cuneiform and were drawn in the clay with a pointed implement. Circular impressions alongside the pictographs represented numerical symbols. Cuneiform (meaning wedge-shaped) script was written by pressing a reed pen or stylus with a wedge-shaped tip into a clay tablet. Clay, when dried to a somewhat hardened state, made a fine surface for writing, and when fired the records written on it became permanent.Early writing was used primarily as a means of recording and storing economic information. This tablet most likely documents grain distributed by a large temple, although the absence of verbs in early texts makes them difficult to interpret with certainty. In addition to the writing that appears on this tablet, the imagery of the cylinder seal, which was incompletely impressed on both faces and the edges of the tablet before it was inscribed, also records information. This seal apparently has not survived. The seal impression depicts a male figure guiding two dogs on a leash and hunting or herding boars in a reed marsh. He is the so-called priest-king, a male figure who can be identified by his dress and pose. Here he appears in his role as the good shepherd who protects flocks from wild predators.Adapted from, Art of the Ancient Near East: A Resource for Educators (2010).

alb3633924 Dye House at Konya-cho, Kanda. Artist: Utagawa Hiroshige (Japanese, Tokyo (Edo) 1797-1858 Tokyo (Edo)). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: H. 13 in. (33 cm); W. 8 1/2 in. (21.6 cm). Date: 1857.In Hiroshige's day, anybody who knew Edo could recognize the city's three most prominent landmarks: distant Mount Fuji, Chiyoda Castle, and Nihon Bridge. Thus, the inclusion of the castle nestled in the townscape and Mount Fuji on the horizon leaves no doubt that this is an Edo scene. But while these features were de rigueur in depictions of the capital, positioning the viewpoint amid the windblown textiles of a dyer's drying platform was Hiroshige's innovation. He views Edo from Konya-cho, a street in the tradesmen's section of town where all the professional cloth dyers were clustered.The strips of cloth hanging in the wind are to be cut into tenugui (or towels), which men tie around their heads during the autumn festival. Thus, we know that autumn is depicted here and that the festival is near at hand.Again, cropping is used to thrust the dynamic forms of the foreground subject matter virtually on top of the viewer. The juxtaposition of various sizes of textiles, hanging like banners, lends an animated sense of rhythm to the composition. A small bird flying by itself in the middle of the sky adds a piquant touch. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3674984 "Jumantsubo Plain at Fukagawa Susaki," from the series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Meisho Edo hyakkei, Fukagawa Susaki Jumantsubo). Artist: Utagawa Hiroshige (Japanese, Tokyo (Edo) 1797-1858 Tokyo (Edo)). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: Oban 14 1/16 x 9 1/2 in. (35.7 x 24.1 cm). Date: 1856.A hawk is diving for prey on the snowy marshes below. Renowned for its size, the marshland depicted here was known as Jumantsubo after its approximate area of one hundred thousand tsubo (about eighty acres). The awesome figure of the hawk seen from a peculiar angle emphasizes the severity of the snowy weather.Hiroshige, one of the two leading ukiyo-e landscape artists of the late Edo period (the other being Katsushika Hokusai), was the son of Ando Gen'emon, a low-ranking samurai who held a hereditary position in the Edo fire brigade. Hiroshige's prints are known for their bold, dynamic designs. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Dimensions: 42 1/2 x 64 1/2 in. (108 x 163.8 cm). Date: ca. 1615.Rubens and his friend Jan Brueghel collaborated on a number of mythological and religious pictures about 1610-20.

The river god Acheloüs explains to the Greek hero Theseus that a distant island is his former lover Perimele, transformed by Neptune so that she could remain forever within the river's embrace. The artists combined Latin learning, athletic nudes (some based on classical sculpture), the wonders of nature and some made by man into an encyclopedic display meant for a sophisticated collector.
