History of Art<p>Sunrise on the Matterhorn (1875) by Albert Bierstadt (1830-1902). In the summer of 1856, during a four-year period of study in Europe, Bierstadt joined several American colleagues on a sketching trip. His fascination with the Swiss terrain resulted in a series of oil studies and pencil sketches, executed during the trip, and several large canvases of the mountain landscape, painted upon his return to New Bedford, Massachusetts.</p><p><a href="https://stellar-art.pixels.com/featured/1-sunrise-on-the-matterhorn-1875-albert-bierstadt.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">stellar-art.pixels.com/feature</span><span class="invisible">d/1-sunrise-on-the-matterhorn-1875-albert-bierstadt.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/ArtHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtHistory</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Switzerland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Switzerland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/alps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>alps</span></a></p>

LauraTimmisPot of The Day - Black-topped Red ware Jar - Predynastic Egypt, Naqada II ca. 3650–3300 B.C.<br> <br> Black-topped red ware pots are a specialised type of pottery which developed during the Egyptian pre-dynastic period (4000–3000 BC).<br> <br> The two tone colour effect on the pots is achieved through a combination of oxidation (red) and reduction (black) firing. This shows early potters had sophisticated ceramics skills and there’s been extensive research done by archeologists to determine how they did this. The current understanding is that the ancient potters fired the pieces in two stages. The first stage was to bring the ware up to a ‘red-hot’ stage in a kiln (approx 540 degrees C), the pots would then be removed and placed top down into a bed of sawdust (or similar material). The buried section of the pot would be in a ‘reduced’ environment allowing the carbon to develop and thus giving the dark back colour. The bottom of the pot would be in the open, exposed to the air allowing the iron in the clay to oxidise resulting in the bright red colour.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br> <br> Although it was over 5000 years ago, those early potters had such a deep understanding of the subtle interactions between fire and clay. Blows my mind! &nbsp;<br> <br> Photo credit - The Met Museum<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/pottery?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pottery</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/ceramics?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ceramics</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/history?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/ancientegypt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ancientegypt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/ancienthistory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ancienthistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/arthistory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#arthistory</a>

Women From History BOT~ Women against Rome, Veleda ~<br> <br> Veleda (around 69–77 CE) was a seeress of the Bructeri, a Germanic people who achieved some prominence during the Batavian rebellion of 69–70 CE, headed by the Romanized Batavian chieftain Gaius Julius Civilis.<br> <br> The ancient Germanic peoples discerned a divinity of prophecy in women and regarded prophetesses as true and living goddesses.In the latter half of the 1st century CE Veleda was regarded as a deity by most of the tribes in central Germany and enjoyed wide influence. She lived in a tower near the Lippe River, a tributary of the Rhine. The inhabitants of the Roman settlement of Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium (now Cologne) accepted her arbitration in a conflict with the Tencteri, an unfederated tribe of Germany.<br> <br> The Batavian leader Civilis originally raised his force as an ally of Vespasian during the Roman power struggle in 69 CE, but when he saw the weakened condition of the legions in Romanized Germany he openly revolted. The revolt was joined by Julius Classicus and Julius Tutor, leaders of the Treviri who like Civilis were Roman citizens.The Roman garrison at Novaesium (now Neuss) surrendered without a fight. The commander of the Roman garrison, Munius Lupercus, was sent to Veleda, though he was killed en route. Later, when the praetorian trireme was captured, it was rowed upriver on the Lippe as a gift to Veleda.<br> <br> A strong show of force by nine Roman legions under Gaius Licinius Mucianus caused the rebellion to collapse. Civilis was cornered on his home island of Batavia on the lower Rhine; his fate is unknown. In Veleda's case, she was left at liberty for several years.<br> <br> In 77 CE the Romans captured her. According to Statius, her captor was then-Governor of Germania Inferior Rutilius Gallicus. A Greek epigram has been found at Ardea, a few kilometres south of Rome, that satirizes her prophetic powers.<br> <br> Painting : Veleda, by Charles Voillemot<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/veleda?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#veleda</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/arthistory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#arthistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/history?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenshistory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#womenshistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenfromhistory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#womenfromhistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/painting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#painting</a>

However, here he has ventured into the world of spirits. It was believed that on New Year's Eve all the foxes of the surrounding provinces would gather at a particular tree near Oji Inari Shrine, the headquarters of the regional cult of the god Inari. There the foxes would change their dress for a visit to the shrine, where they would be given orders for the coming year. On the way, the animals would emit distinctive flames by which local farmers were able to predict the crops of the coming year.”</p>
