Chess SetsPair of Child's Stirrups late 17th-18th century German or Spanish The small size of these stirrups means that they were probably made for a child. Children from wealthy families would start riding lessons as soon as they could sit on a pony, usually around the age of 3. Horsemanship was an important component of European noble society, and children of the elite were expected to master the art of equitation. Moreover, as many nobles served in the cavalry, it was essential for them to be skillful riders by the time they were old enough to go to war. Pair of Child's Stirrups.

For samurai, masks served as a principal face defense and helped secure the helmet to the head more firmly.The majority of masks were half-length (mempo), covering the nose and the face below the eyes. Their iron surfaces are either lacquered or a dark russet finish; the interiors are usually lacquered red. In addition to half masks, the Metropolitan Museum's collection is unusual in possessing numerous full masks (somen). The majority date from the peaceful Edo period. During that time, armorers like the Mychin clan took pride in making ever more varied masks as a demonstration of their creativity and their famous metalworking skills.. Mask. Japanese. dated 1715.

Date: mid-19th century.Made to catch the eye of a shopper bent on ballroom glory, the cameos in this set of jewelry (99.33.1-.6) bear typical Grand Tour images, including (on the necklace's clasp) Guido Reni's Aurora fresco of 1614 (Palazzo Pallavicini-Rospigliosi, Rome), mythological scenes, peasants of the Roman campagna, and (on both the pin and the necklace) Bertel Thorvaldsen's ever-popular marble relief Night of 1815 (Thorvaldsens Museum, Copenhagen). Billing doves grace the earrings, and on one of the bracelets are a comely marine divinity and a dolphin.The rather flimsy fittings of stamped gold filigree suggest that this was costume jewelry, not meant to be worn often.
