Victorian Christmas Advent Calendar

Conceived and designed by Douglas Sardo.
Counting the days until Christmas becomes a lot more fun with this delightful Victorian-themed Advent calendar. On a lively Christmas scene are doors with a colorful ornament behind each one, which you can hang on the separate, stand-up tree. The Christmas scene, the tree, and the ornaments are all based on vintage greeting cards from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries from The Jefferson R. Burdick Collection in the Metropolitan Museum.

William Morris

Poet, political activist, architect, and designer, William Morris (British, 1834–1896) ranks among the most influential figures of the Victorian era. In 1861, Morris co- founded the successful firm later known as Morris & Co. The company’s enduringly popular designs for wallpaper, stained glass, furniture, and fabric reflect Morris’s own interests in medieval art and the close study of nature, and were often densely patterned with flowers, leaves, and fruit.

Louis Comfort Tiffany

this peacock collection was inspired by Louis Comfort Tiffany’s (American, 1848–1933) iridescent glass vase produced by Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company in 1900. The piece stylizes the “eye” of the peacock feather with rich iridescent hues that gradate to a light blue surrounding the eyes. Louis Comfort Tiffany was often compelled by the natural world, and this particular motif was used in some of his most important architectural commissions and ornamental vessels.

Rodin: The Thinker Sculpture

Sculptor Auguste Rodin (French, 1840–1917) received his first commission from the French government in 1880, for a monumental portal covered with sculptural relief for a museum planned in Paris. Rodin proposed The Gates of Hell, a vast composition based loosely on Dante’s Divine Comedy, but the work remained unfinished and was never cast in bronze during the sculptor’s lifetime. In the 1880s, Rodin began to extract individual figures from the reliefs of The Gates of Hell and enlarge them to create freestanding sculptures. In its original position in this work, The Thinker (Le Penseur) presided over the damned from the center of the portal’s lintel. The detached, brooding figure has been invested with multiple meanings—poet, judge, sculptor.

Torso of a Youth Sculpture:

The marble torso on which our reproduction is based (Roman, Imperial period, 1st or 2nd century A.D.) is a copy or adaptation of a Greek statue of the fourth century B.C. The sinuous leaning pose of this youth brings to mind a famous statue of the deity Pothos, the mythological personification of erotic longing (pothos means desire), that was much copied in the Roman period. Based on this evocative Roman work, our reduced-scale reproduction was created with a combination of three- dimensional imaging and traditional sculpture techniques.

The Metropolitan store of art has a fine sculpture collection

The Three Graces Sculpture:

Created in the second century A.D., the Museum’s marble The Three Graces is a Roman copy of a Greek statue group from the second century B.C. These three young girls, linked in a dance- like pose, represent Aglaia (Beauty), Euphrosyne (Mirth), and Thalia (Abundance). Young, beautiful, and modest, they personify the graceful sensuousness of the female form; their closest connection is with Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, whom they serve as handmaidens. This frieze- like composition in the Museum’s collection is typical of classicizing art of the second and first century B.C. Our reduced-scale reproduction was created using a combination of three- dimensional imaging and traditional sculpture techniques.

Louis C.Tiffany Magnolia collection:

In a long career that encompassed nearly every form of fine and decorative arts, Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, 1848–1933) is particularly noted for reviving and revolutionizing the art of stained glass. To achieve his subtle and naturalistic effects, he made use of the variations inherent in glass as well as manipulating the molten material itself.

16/10/2014

Monet Water Lilies collection:

In 1893, Claude Monet (French, 1840–1926) had a pond dug and planted with water lilies at his home in Giverny. He first painted it in 1899, and thereafter it dominated his art. Water Lilies, the Museum's painting on which our colorful collection is based, was begun in the 1910s and remained in Monet's studio for the rest of his life.

Irses Collection Van Gogh!

Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890), the eldest son of a Dutch Reformed minister and a bookseller’s daughter, pursued various vocations, including that of an art dealer and clergyman, before deciding to become an artist at the age of 27. Throughout the course of his decade-long career (1880–90), he produced nearly 900 paintings and more than 1,100 works on paper. Ironically, in 1890, he modestly assessed his artistic legacy as “of very secondary importance.”

NEW STOCK!

The son of a Viennese engraver, the painter Gustav Klimt (Austrian, 1862–1918) became a leader of the Sezession (Secession), an association of artists founded in 1897 to challenge the prevailing academic conservatism prevalent in turn-of-the-century Vienna. A late flourishing of the school of Symbolism, Klimt’s work displays a deep fascination with both the productive and destructive forces of female sexuality. His highly ornamental style reveals the close connection between Symbolism and parallel movements in the decorative arts, such as Art Nouveau.

Throughout their long history, domestic cats have been favorite subjects for artists around the world. Few artists have been more passionately fond of cats than Théophile- Alexandre Steinlen (French, 1859–1923), a Swiss-born graphic artist who lived in Paris. He drew cats throughout his career with unvarying grace and skill, particularly those from his Montmartre neighborhood. Steinlen’s models were habitués of rooftops, gutters, cemeteries, and garbage bins, the pets of local artists, seamstresses, and concierges.

Greek Palmette Bracelet

The Museum's elegantly antiqued bracelet boasts a decorative pattern of lotus and palmette motifs, based on one of the Greek anthemion drawings illustrated in Owen Jones’s The Grammar of Ornament (British, 1809–1874). Palmettes are reflective of the Greeks' respect for nature and regard for mathematical order and harmony.

Ornamental Palmette Hoop Earrings

The Grammar of Ornament by Owen Jones (British, 1809–1874) was an important theoretical treatise and reference work for late nineteenth-century artists, designers, and craftsmen. A palmette border depicted in Jones’s influential design book is the source for our lacy earrings.

Our top is based on a broad collar from the tomb of Lady Senebtisi (Middle Kingdom, ca. 1859–1813 B.C.) discovered by the Museum’s excavators during their 1906– 1935 Egyptian Expedition. The broad collar necklace is particularly evocative of ancient Egyptian royalty and decadence, as it is crafted of gold and turquoise, faience, other stone beads, and fringed with gold pendants.

Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) painted the irises adapted for this striking top in 1889, during his yearlong stay at the asylum in Saint-Rémy. The cropped composition is divided into broad areas of vivid color with monumental irises overflowing its borders; it was probably influenced by Japanese woodblock prints. Van Gogh’s brother Theo wrote of the work: “[It] strikes the eye from afar. It is a beautiful study full of air and life.” The original painting is in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles.

A beautiful textile fragment woven in Iran in the second half of the sixteenth century, once part of the central field of a huge carpet, is in the Museum’s collection. This magnificent piece exhibits the use of jufti (paired) knotting, characteristic of a small group of carpets and fragments attributed to the northeastern Iranian province of Khurasan. The carefully drawn flowers, incorporating serrated curling leaves, resemble those of the so-called saz style, which became popular in Iran and Turkey in the sixteenth century. The ornate pattern on our porcelain mugs is taken from this splendid textile.

This striking bracelet is adapted from an eighth-century gold belt mount in the Museum’s collection. Made by an Avar metalsmith, it was part of a larger group of gold objects found in Vrap, modern-day Albania. The treasure attests to the wealth of the Avars, a nomadic tribe of mounted warriors from the Eurasian steppe.

In the Museum’s collection is a gold snake ring from the Roman period (A.D. first century). Its sinuous body, patterned with delicate scales, features a finely wrought snake’s head and tail that the ancient goldsmith twisted to form the ring’s bezel. Our striking bracelet is adapted from this splendid Egyptian ring.
