Excerpt: ...being ornamentally conventionalized. Fig. 6, Plate x1v, represents a paper pattern showing a design for embroidering a shirt. In the centre is a circle, around which are grouped four tortoises (a), strongly conventionalized. Around it, on both sides, two bands forming four circles and two ellipses are symmetrically arranged. In every circle there is a roe Cervus capreolus L.), b; two snakes (muiki), d; and a bird (V), called tewerko, the species of which I have not yet been able to determine. Each ellipse contains a frog (Jiana temporaries L.), e; two spiders (atkomama), f; and two gadflies (shigaxtd), g. Outside of these f1gures a number of animals are represented standing along the edges of the pattern. There are four mosquitoes, h; four chimney-swallows (Hirundo rustica L.), i; four snakes, d; four stags (Ccrvus claphus L.), j; and four fawns (Cervus capreolus L.), k. In the paper pattern shown in Fig. 20 the same picture is represented eight times. In it the following animals are represented: a jumping tiger (a) with open jaws, the fore-legs with paws outstretched, with only one hind-leg, and tail upturned; an eagle grasping a fish in its beak (d), this conception being very likely derived from the cock holding the same little creature in its beak; a flying wild duck (c); a musk-deer with a design of a conventionalized bipartite fish on its body (d); a fox lying in ambush (V); frogs (./ andg); a horse and its rider (//); an eagle flapping its wing and having a foot with three outstretched claws (z); what is said to be a glutton (/&). Fig. 21 represents nearly one-fourth part of a paper pattern that is divided again into two symmetrical parts. The ornaments are distributed over four large and twenty-six small quadrangular and ten...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the American Museum of Natural History, Vol. 7: The Decorative Art of the Amur Tribes Artistic representations of the bear in wood-carving are limited to the Gilyak, for use at their bear-festival. This animal, however, is never reproduced in drawings or paintings, either in natural or conventional form, according to the verbal testimony of both the Gilyak and Gold. Neither have I myself discovered even a trace of the bear-heads suggested by Schurtz. Of the existence of his eye-ornaments, apparently a mere outcome of his enthusiasm, my authorities were also entirely ignorant. I am under obligations to Professor A. Bastian for permitting me to take advantage of those collections in the Konigliche Museum fur Volkerkunde in Berlin which relate to the Amur region, and which were made by Captain A. Jacobsen. I have also to thank the authorities of the Konigliche Kunstgewerbe Museum in Berlin for placing at my disposal fourteen specimens of Chinese and Japanese weavings. These objects from the two Berlin museums have been drawn by Mr. W. von den Steinen; drawings for the other illustrations were prepared by Mr. Rudolf Weber. A list of plates is given at the end. Historical Aspect. - The history of the decorative art of the Amur tribes is shrouded in mystery, since no written records give any account of it; nevertheless we may be able to make some historical observations regarding its development. A comparison of the artistic material found in my collections with that obtained by Schrenck nearly half a century ago, and illustrated in his work "Reisen und Forschungen im Amur-Lande," affords instructive evidence that the forms of this sphere of art have remained unaltered up to the present time, notwithstanding all political turbulence and change that have affected the Amur region in the mean time. Although Russian influence is nowadays all-powerful, yet it has not been able to suppress or eradicate native art, nor to replace it by something better, for the apparent simple reason that the Russian settlers had indeed nothing better to offer. Whereas Russian "culture" tended to shatter the entire life of the natives, its effect is the more striking and remarkable in view of the fact that the native art has been retained pure and intact. From this we may be justified in inferring that their artistic conceptions have taken deep root in the hearts of the people, and have acquired a high value in their intellectual world. The tenacity with which the style of art survives should be counted as evidence of its national character, at least of an ancient naturalization on the soil in which it was planted. On the other hand, we observe at first that the forms and conceptions of this ornamentation are imbued, for the most part, with a Chinese spirit; but considering the historical feature just mentioned, and, moreover, the fact that the present aspect of the wide propagation and the skilful execution of this art all over the Amur region can be the result only of long-enduring tradition, it can hardly be designated en masse as a Chinese importation. Its basis rests undeniably in China. In the course of time the Amur tribes appropriated Chinese forms to themselves, and very likely further developed them independently.
