Leaf from a Book of Hours: Adam and Eve and the Fall of Man (Prefatory Miniature to the Office of the Virgin) (recto), c. 1510. France, Rouen, 16th century. Ink, tempera and liquid gold on vellum; each leaf: 17.9 x 12.8 cm (7 1/16 x 5 1/16 in.). Characteristic of the artist's hand, the bright orange-reds combine with deep blues, greens, and an abundance of gold wash in this leaf.

From 1746 to 1749, the Swedish ship Gotha Lejon sailed on a mercantile mission to Canton. Several accounts of what transpired have survived. A handwritten journal has been attributed to Carl Fredrik von Schantz (1727-92). Another account of the mission of Gotha Lejon was compiled by Carl Johan Gethe (1728-65), a cartographer and natural historian. His diary is titled 'Diary of a Journey to East India begun on 18 October 1746 and ending June 20, 1749'. The Swedish East India Company (Swedish: Svenska Ostindiska Companiet or SOIC) was founded in 1731 in Gothenburg, Sweden, for the purpose of conducting trade with the Far East, and grew to become the largest trading company in Sweden during the 18th century. It closed in 1813.
