alb24909659 View and sections of a fort with a battery and Gruson turrets. Model inspected by King Alfonso XII at the Ministry of War on 15 January 1879. Madrid, Spain. The Gruson Fahrpanzer (Gruson system) was a German mobile armoured turret system. It was developed in the late 19th century by the German engineer and industrialist Hermann Gruson (1821-1895). It was designed for fixed defensive and fortress roles. It offered robust protection thanks to its construction from chill-cast iron. In addition to its strength, another advantage of the Gruson system was the absence of small parts, such as bolts or nuts, which could be violently torn off by the impact of projectiles. Engraving. La Ilustración Española y Americana, 1879.

alb24909661 United States of America. The Spanish Church of San Francisco, California. In 1870, the Spanish priest Andrés Garriga (1843-1915), a seminarian in Vic (province of Barcelona, Catalonia), was commissioned by Archbishop Alemany to build a new Catholic temple in the city of San Francisco (California), to be constructed and maintained by the Spanish community residing in San Francisco. After raising funds through theatrical performances, fairs, raffles, etc., combined with substantial donations from the Spanish residents, a suitable plot of land was purchased. Around 1873, the former Spanish military engineer and architect Eusebio Molera Bros (1846-1932) was commissioned to design the church. In August 1875, work began on preparing the site, and the base of the building was completed that same year. In 1877, works were suspended due to a lack of funds, whilst sufficient funds were sought and raised to continue them. The engraving depicts the façade of the church, which was to be erected in honour of Our Lady of Guadalupe, as it was designed. The ground floor was intended for use as a school, with the church occupying the upper floor. The church was in service at the corner of Broadway and Mason streets for almost thirty years, before being destroyed, along with the city, as a result of the earthquake of 18 April 1906. Engraving.

In February 1879, Windmill Street became a focal point of the severe local economic crisis, with a relief center established to handle the demand for assistance. The severe economic crisis that was ravaging the city left thousands of workers who had been employed in the numerous cotton textile mills out of work. On Windmill Street, soup was distributed to the needy by means of tickets. It had a kitchen equipped with three large boilers. Each of them could produce eight hundred litres of broth daily.

alb24909136 Manchester, England. Needy children queuing for soup to be handed out at Vestry Hall in Burngreave Road. This was a scene that took place daily in Sheffield as a result of the severe economic crisis. On the initiative of the local authorities, with the help of many charitable individuals, relief distributions -whether in the form of food or cash- were organised for the poor. Vestry Hall was the venue designated for the distribution of food to poor children of both sexes. At the top of the engraving is a detail depicting another everyday scene: girls and boys approaching to claim their food, having arrived after the appointed time for distribution, and the building's caretaker simply carrying out his instructions without arguing with them: 'You're late!' Sheffield had a significant iron and steel manufacturing industry. Engraving. La Ilustración Española y Americana, 1879.

alb3636394 The Assumption of the Virgin. Artist: Bernardo Daddi (Italian, Florence (?) ca. 1290-1348 Florence) (possibly with workshop assistance). Dimensions: Framed: 44 1/2 × 56 1/8 × 2 3/4 in. (113 × 142.6 × 7 cm)42 1/2 × 53 7/8 in. (108 × 136.8 cm). Date: ca. 1337-39.Bernardo Daddi may have trained in the Florentine workshop of Giotto, a pivotal figure in the history of European painting. Daddi fused Giotto's grandeur and monumentality with a refined grace and lyricism. It has been suggested that while Daddi was responsible for the design of this panel, it was executed by a leading member of his workshop. The panel is likely the upper half of an important altarpiece painted for a chapel in the Cathedral of Prato, near Florence, which houses the highly venerated girdle, or belt, of the Virgin Mary. As evidence of her Assumption, the Virgin lowers her girdle to St. Thomas, whose hands are visible at the panel's lower edge and who was depicted in the missing lower section of the painting.

alb3671989 The Virgin Adoring the Host. Artist: Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (French, Montauban 1780-1867 Paris). Dimensions: 15 7/8 x 12 7/8 in. (40.3 x 32.7 cm). Date: 1852.This small, jewel-like devotional painting was made as a gift for Ingres's friend Louise Marcotte, who introduced the artist to Delphine Ramel, whom he married in 1852. The Raphaelesque composition is based on one Ingres first painted in 1841 for the future czar Alexander II, which includes the two patron saints of Russia, Alexander Nevsky and Nicholas (Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow). For this version, Ingres replaced the Russian saints with two French ones. He would go on to paint four more variants, as well as, in 1855, a watercolor for Madame Ingres herself (Fogg Museum, Cambridge, Mass.). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3622791 Allegory of Music. Artist: Laurent de La Hyre (French, Paris 1606-1656 Paris). Dimensions: 41 5/8 x 56 3/4 in. (105.7 x 144.1 cm). Date: 1649.The allegorical figure tunes a theorbo. At her shoulder is a songbird, symbol of natural music, whereas by contrast she may be a representation of modern music theory and practice. To the right are various contemporary instruments and scores: a lute, a violin, two recorders, a vocal exercise, and a song in two parts. This canvas, originally flanked by two music-making putti (Musée Magnin, Dijon), belonged to a series of the seven Liberal Arts commissioned by Gédéon Tallemant (1613-1668) for his house in the Marais quarter in Paris.

alb3653231 Madonna and Child. Artist: Titian (Tiziano Vecellio) (Italian, Pieve di Cadore ca. 1485/90?-1576 Venice). Dimensions: Overall 18 x 22 in. (45.7 x 55.9 cm); painted surface 17 x 21 1/2 in. (43.2 x 54.6 cm). Date: ca. 1508.This is among the earliest devotional paintings of the Madonna and Child by Titian, dating to about 1508. Technical study has revealed that the artist first posed the figures sitting erect and in the center of the canvas, a composition closer to those by Giovanni Bellini. The final pose is more informal and suggests a tender rapport between the mother and child. The picture has been strongly cleaned in the past and has lost much of its delicacy of definition. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3612882 Auricular Cartouche with Figures within a Strapwork Frame from Veederley Veranderinghe van grotissen ende Compertimenten. Libro Primo. Artist: Johannes van Doetecum the elder (Netherlandish, active 1554-ca. 1600, died 1605); Lucas van Doetecum (Netherlandish, active 1554-72, died before 1589); after Cornelis Floris II (Netherlandish, Antwerp before 1514-1575 Antwerp). Dimensions: Overall: 14 7/16 x 11 7/16 x 5/16 in. (36.6 x 29 x 0.8 cm). Date: 1556.In his early career in Antwerp, the sculptor Cornelis Floris proved himself to be one of the most inventive designers of ornament. He took inspiration from Italian grotesque decorations and developed his very own vocabulary of, often exotic, creatures which inhabit a world of strapwork. Invertebrates and sea creatures play a prominent role in the designs, which illustrates the contemporary taste for the bizarre, but may also have be connected with Antwerp's success in trade by sea. This particular type of grotesques became characteristic for Antwerp during the 1540s and 1550s, and is sometimes even specifically referred to as Floris grotesques, although several hands can be distinguished in extant designs.

alb3681815 Pietà. Artist: Carlo Crivelli (Italian, Venice (?), active by 1457-died 1495 Ascoli Piceno). Dimensions: Overall 28 1/4 x 25 3/8 in. (71.8 x 64.5 cm); painted surface 28 x 25 1/8 in. (71.1 x 63.8 cm). Date: 1476.Remarkable for its expressive intensity, this image of the Pietà belonged to an elaborate Gothic altarpiece widely considered Crivelli's masterpiece (National Gallery, London). Crivelli contrasts ornamental effects with details of extreme realism (or surrealism)--such as the hand with swollen wound and pronounced veins that hangs over the tomb's edge into the viewer's space. In the seventeenth century the picture belonged to the Barberini family in Rome: the frame is decorated with their emblem, the bee. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
