Bowl with the Image of Four Camels. Dimensions: H. 2 1/2 in. (6.4 cm)Diam. 9 in. (22.9 cm)Wt. 15.2 oz. (431 g). Date: 10th century.Luster-painted bowls made in Abbasid Iraq often featured representations of birds, mythical beasts, human beings, and vegetal patterns. This example's playful depiction of camels is a rare departure from the typical iconographic repertory. The medallion layout and the repeating design of the camels with palanquins on their backs lend a sense of dynamism to the piece, almost as if the artist wanted to show the beasts proceeding in a caravan.

Dish 1866 Joseph-Théodore Deck French Determined that pottery vessels should be regarded as true works of art, avant-garde ceramicists in France in the last decades of the nineteenth century transformed their craft into an intellectual and emotional endeavor. The pioneers of this revival were Jean Carriès, Ernest Chaplet, Théodore Deck, and Auguste Delaherche. These revolutionary artist-potters embraced artisanal traditions while pursuing lost techniques through exhaustive experimentation. Reacting to what they viewed as an excessive and improper use of ornament, they celebrated the simplicity and sincerity of their medium, following the tenets of the Art Nouveau style taking place in Europe. Based on the principles of the British Arts and Crafts movement, Art Nouveau artists sought to reform the decorative arts by emphasizing uniqueness and a return to craftsmanship. Artist-potters found inspiration in Asian ceramics, particularly Japanese stoneware (a hard, dense type of pottery), wh

Capture of Christ 1520-30 German, Augsburg or Nuremberg These sculptural reliefs (2015.388.1-.4) display extraordinary, jewel-like enameling accomplished through an innovative technique involving molten glass paste built up over an armature of gold wires on a silver base. In expressive detail, they represent four scenes of Christs Passion at a tiny scale—fully appreciable only to those privileged enough to view the reliefs at close range. (The compositions owe more than a little to the Small Passion print series by the famous Northern Renaissance master Albrecht Dürer.) Expensive as they were, the plaques would have been worth only a fraction of the treasure in the container they decorated: most likely some lost relic, imbued with spiritual power and believed to bridge our world with the divine.[Elizabeth Cleland, 2017.
