Add to basketDecorated holy card, with punctured borders, with second margin in gold. In an oval the Virgin Mary with crossed hands on her chest. On the verso French text and some scribbles in pen. Titled: 'vierge imma[.]llée' 'Holy cards/immaginette are small, mass-produced, wallet-sized cards that have been, and still are, a significant ma…rker of "growing up Catholic." In many respects they represent, and have been used as, the people's Lives of the Saints, the child's first lesson in orthodoxy and everyday manners, art for the masses, a modern version of the Bible of the illiterate. Despite the adjective "holy" and although they are often treated by the devout as placeholders for the sacred, holy cards are not really sacred objects. They are, instead, aids to worship, reminders of the sacraments and of the model lives of saints and other hallowed figures. More than that [.] they can be understood and often function as rich and cherished repositories of personal and cultural memory both visual and verbal.' This kind of decorated Holy cards are also referred to as 'canivets' ['Santini' or 'Immaginette' in Italian] and were '[.] securely tucked away in a pocket, or pinned to the folds of clothing, they could be retrieved in moments of anguish or need to be looked at, touched, perhaps kissed, and often spoken to. During the 1700s and 1800s, as the middle and merchant classes increased in numbers, the cards reflected that changing economic demographic. For those rising in wealth and status, elaborate lace versions of immaginette, canivets, very similar to Victorian valentines, began to circulate alongside humbler and simpler versions in Europe, particularly in France and subsequently in Italy. Carefully crafted, expensive versions of immaginette were exchanged as gifts and mementos of important religious occasions. When left blank, and in the hands of literate people, the verso (back side) of these artifacts became the site of "epistolary" exchanges between teachers and students, between parents and children, and between friends.' [D. George, M. Rizzi Salvator. Holy Cards/Immaginette: The Extraordinary Literacy of Vernacular Religion, in 'College Composition and Communication', Vol. 60, No. 2 (Dec., 2008), pp. 250-284]. Engraving on paper, elaborate puncturing of the paper along the border; gilded inner border; total: 93 x 64 mm; damp stain on the bottom; upper right decorated margin damaged .

Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition. The body of this Cochiti Pueblo wooden drum appears in its natural unpainted state except for the red paint in the area of the drum heads, and thin blue lines which are remnants of prior blue paint on the body. Both of the drum heads are painted black, and the drum is 8 1/4" tall x 9" diameter. The drum came from…Cochiti Pueblo, New Mexico. Pueblo dances are prayers. They are sacred occasions where Pueblo people give thanks for a bountiful harvest, good health and prosperity. The singer's prayer songs are accompanied by the sound of drums. The beat of the drums reminds us of the sound of the heartbeat of mother earth, the source of all life. It could also be the sound of thunder, the signal that life-sustaining rain is on the way. Drums are an integral part of all Pueblo dances, but not all Pueblos make their own drums. The most desired drums are known to come from Cochiti Pueblo where the Herrera family has been making drums for three generations. Santiago â Jimâ Herrera (? - 1971) taught his son Arnold to make drums in the 1960s and 70s. After the death of his father in 1971, Arnold continued the drum-making tradition and has now passed this art to his sons. This drum could have been made by a member of the Herrera family but we do not know the artisan who carved this drum. It was carefully carved out of cottonwood The drum has two heads. Pueblo songs are written to start slowly and then go to a climax. At a certain point of the song, the drum is flipped over to achieve a higher beat. This lifts the dancers and gives them the impetus to continue dancing. Condition: The drum is in excellent condition, the rawhide head and the strings are very tight.

Add to basketEngraved frontispiece of the first Edition of the political pamphlet 'Comoedia Vetus'. Though anonymously published, it commonly accepted that the author was Willem Meerman (?-1612), a seafaring man. In 1612, the year this pamphlet was published, Meerman embarked on a voyage to America, from which he never returned. In this pamp…let, Meerman uses maritime expressions as an allegory on the political situation in Holland. The pamphlet is written in a clear and witty style. It attacks the protestant clergy in Holland as being little better than their Catholic predecessors. Hence the title, which translates as "the old game". The illustrated titlepage print shows prince Maurits, seated at a table with seven other gentlemen. He holds a stick, a man with a head shaped like church pulls at the other end of the stick. At the front of the scene, several sailors are approaching and watch the scene in surprise. At the foot of the title are the words "Eij Maet, siet is 't lant vol gecken? Noom wil mijn Heer de stock onttrecken". In the same year 1612 another edition was issued, slightly smaller, with the extended title "Comoedia Vetus, of anders ghenoemt Het Bootsmanspraetjen". The addition "bootmans praetjen" stuck and came back in later editions, which were issued well into the 18th century, until 1740. On the verso collector's mark: Gemeente Museum of The Hague (L. 1096); here are also pencil scribbles. l Etching and engraving on paper, trimmed within plate mark, margins restored; total: 197 x 146 mm; traces of previous mounting on the verso.
