Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 18: March 1923 The second panel shows three knights, similarly clad, hewing bushes or young trees with swords and hatchets. The middle knight wears a rose-lavender colored hauberk, with white chain mail on his legs. The two side knights are clad in white with ruby hose and ruby belts about their waists. It is to be noticed that the knight on the right has his sword in his ruby scabbard, for, unlike the others, he wields an axe. In other respects the coloring of the panel is like the other, with. A blue background and ruby border, but there appear to be more restored portions. Probably but half of this medallion has its original glass. The trees are stranger than those of the first; rose lavender and pale green, curling and twisting, they resemble the stems of vines. It is even more difficult to tell What these two subjects represent, than to date them. Generally, glass of this period depicts some Bib lical story. They must have been minor parts of a large window, full of medallions, and these tell only part of a story. These knights may represent Christian champions combatting the forces of heathendom, symbolized _as a wilderness of trees; they may themselves be returned Crusaders, the Teutonic Knights, who drove back the un-christian hordes of Northeastern Germany in the thirteenth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 21: June, 1926 Tapestries made during the period from 1375 until 1515 are the greatest achievement of tapestry weaving, because the requisites of design are more adequately met within these years than in any other period in the history of the craft. The earliest tapestries held closely to the architectural tradition, as the King Arthur fragment now in America so clearly demon strates. A series of Gothic canopies each give shelter to a single figure archaically drawn; their structure and ornament have been faithfully transcribed from existing types of building. Then an increasing love of natural forms led the way for the verdure pieces, allegorical and romantic themes furnishing a slight subject for tapes tries entirely sprinkled over with sprightly growing plants; now and then active dogs, strange beasts or an occasional human figure claimed a space. Until about 1450 no precise demarcation existed between French and Flemish workmanship. In the fourteenth century the Flemings dominated sculpture, painting and cartoon making, yet they worked in France, under French patronage, on earlier traditions. Their earthy, energetic natures were somewhat tempered by the greater sensitiveness and fastidious taste of the French. However, as the religious formulas relaxed which had heretofore checked their free dom of expression, the Flemish compositions seethed with interest, human figures failing to achieve first importance among the great mass of rich fabrics, jewels, architecture, flowers and animals. On the other hand, the French withstood this realism and carried on the earlier tradition of design. Brussels became the chief centre of tapestry weaving in the last years of the fifteenth and early years of the sixteenth centuries, weavers going to Italy, France, Spain and England; Tournai, Lille and Valenciennes shared in part its glory. The tapestry,1 (figure 1) lately acquired by the Museum, belongs to this golden age of tapestry making and easily takes its place as the outstanding single purchase in any of the Museum's collections. It is an acquisition of first importance. The subject of the tapestry is the Deposition from the Cross, although in its narrowest sense the episode pictured here is more properly known as the Pieta. The scene fol lows the removal of the dead Christ from the cross and precedes the Entombment. In early times the last events in the life of Christ were narrated in seven scenes, beginning with the Entrance into Jerusalem and ending with the Entombment. Fourteen scenes have since come to be shown, of which the Deposition is the thirteenth. The set of Passion tapestries attributed to Jean de Rome includes eight scenes; in this case the Deposition is the seventh episode.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 22: January 1927 The sum Of our conclusions seems to point to a late Chou date for the casting and interment of the set, let us say during the fourth century before Christ. Yet it would be rash indeed to attempt to maintain the truth of this without wavering; the possibility exists that it was executed according to ancient patterns several centuries later. The patina, however, and the profound alteration of styles that came early in the Christian era, eliminate absolutely any later date than Han.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 20: Published at Memorial Hall, Fairmount Park, Philadelphia; February 1925The wonderful natural resources of the Province of Pennsylvania caused many capable and energetic men among these settlers to attempt the making of iron. There were great ore beds; the thickly wooded country gave endless charcoal, and swiftly flowing streamsprovided water power. Much money was needed, however, as well as intelligence and hope, even for the smallest beginning, and usually, after a few years, the undertaking would either fail or pass into new ownership. Possibly the most noted among these unfortunate men is Henry William Stiegel, who failed after being successful for a number of years. This was not the fate of all, however. Others determined to carry out their early ambitions to become great iron masters, fought their way through many difficulties Until their dreams were realized, and their names, industries and fortunes have been handed down to the present day.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Whistler, so Pennell says, spent three weeks drawing on the plate of The Black Lion Wharf. How hard I tried to approach it! Pennell adds. He was a prodigious worker and sound technician. But he was not a student of human nature. He did not follow Rembrandt and the old Dutch masters in the study of human life. Activities, not emotions, interested him; his appeal is not to the hearts and souls of humanity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
