Whirling Dervishes, Jean Baptiste Vanmour, c. 1720 - c. 1737 painting Derwishen or Islamic Heildmen took a special place in the religious tolerant Istanbul. Just like Christian monks, some Derwishen roamed the countryside or through the city, while others lived in communities or orders. The most famous order is that of the Mevlevi-Derwishen, the followers of the philosopher and mystical poet Jalal Ad-Din Rumi (1207-1273), who is also called Mevlana, "our master". Mevlevi-Derwishen try to get in touch with Allah through prayer, music and dazzling dance. Their right hand is aimed at the dance to receive the heavenly blessing, which they pass on to earth with the left hand. The followers of Mevlana lived in Tekkes, also known as Mevlevihanesi. Vanmour painted the Mevlevihane that stood in Pera near the Palais de Hollande. It was the oldest of the city and consisted of a prayer hall or dance hall (Semahane), of rooms for the Derwishen, a room and a special prayer room for their leader De S

Life of Saint Philip of Jesus (Vida de San Felipe de Jesus) José Montes de Oca (Mexican, active ca. 1788-1820). Life of Saint Philip of Jesus (Vida de San Felipe de Jesus), 1801. Engraved prints on white antique laid paper, modern binding, size of cover: 9 1/8 x 6 7/16 in. (23.2 x 16.4 cm). These three objects tell a story of Mexicos early nineteenth-century Creole patriotism. The Mexican independence movement was fueled by Creoles, who were often denied a voice in colonial government. The 1821 Act of Independence formalized the independence that had been declared in 1810 and was signed by many Creole aristocrats, among them Don José María Gómez de Cervantes, whose portrait is on view nearby. New World figures like the Virgin of Guadalupe, who miraculously appeared to the Indian Juan Diego in 1521, and Saint Felipe de Jesús, the first Mexican-born saint, became important nationalist symbols, supporting the idea that the independence of Mexico was divinely ordained.

The Sixteen Luohans dated 1591 Wu Bin Chinese In the Chinese popular imagination, mendicant monks, conjurers, and mysterious hermits were often thought to be disguised living luohans,” or Buddhist holy men capable of producing miracles. When government corruption and ineptitude imperiled social order, as it did in late Ming times, such superstitious messianic beliefs became more widespread. Here, in one of his earliest extant works, Wu Bin embraced an archaic figure style and followed the tradition of depicting luohans as fantastic eccentrics whose grotesque features belie their inner spiritual nature. Wu’s humorous painting may have had a serious message: holiness can be concealed within an outwardly incongruous form. Listen to experts illuminate this artwork's story Listen Play or pause #7318.
