Passing the Bamboo Grove, 1868-1912. The first state of this print was privately issued as a calendar print for 1766, with the months of the year depicted in the woman's sash. It was illegal to sell any type of calendar without a government license, and this print is a later state with the calendar replaced with a checked pattern so that the print could be sold commercially.

Pricked Spur, 1200s. The spur was an essential part of the knight's equipment. Fastened to his heels by means of straps and buckles, it was used to prod a horse into action. These examples represent the oldest type recorded, the "pricked" spur, so-called because its neck terminated in a spike. The pricked spur was replaced during the Middle Ages by the "rowel" spur, with a rotating spiked wheel.

Celt-Shaped Pendant, c. 300 BC - AD 600. Costa Rican jade pendants may imitate the shape of axe blades (celts) used for agriculture. The pendants often take the form of "axe gods," creatures with human, bird, or animal traits. Jade carving was common in Costa Rica before ad 500, but then declined in importance. Gold eventually replaced jade as the region’s preferred luxury material.

Six Landscapes: Path Between Swamp and Wooded Bank, c. 1595. One of a series of six wooded landscapes, this print characterizes some of the most significant developments in 17th-century Dutch landscape and provides a striking contrast to the dramatic forest interiors of other Flemish immigrant artists. As etching superseded engraving in landscape prints, original compositions designed by printmakers replaced reproductions of works by contemporary painters. Savery's etching also anticipates the rise of Dutch realism, with more accurate representations of the native landscape.

Woman's Dress, c. 1880-1885. In the late 1700s, Diné (Navajo) women's wear changed from a one-piece garment to a dress fashioned from two matching panels attached on the sides and shoulders. Originally gathered at the waist with a woven belt, the dresses also could be cinched with silver concha belts of Diné manufacture. After the 1880s, women reserved such dresses for special occasions; everyday wear comprised full skirts and blouses.

The Red Kerchief, c. 1868-73. In its early stages, this composition contained two figures seated inside the room on either side of the window. Monet radically altered the composition by painting over the figures. They were replaced by an image of the artist's favorite model---his wife Camille, who passes outside the window in a red cape. Intense light---reflected from the snow-covered landscape---floods the room, obliterating details along the walls and floor.

Pikeman’s Armor, c. 1620-1630. Pikemen formed the backbone of infantry tactics through the end of the English Civil Wars (1642-51). Since muskets alone were ineffective against cavalry charges, companies of pikemen, armed with pikes, or spears, of 12 to 16 feet in length, were deployed in defensive formations to protect the musketeers, who wore no armor. A pikeman was usually equipped with a breastplate and backplate, hinged tassets reaching to mid-thigh, and sometimes a gorget, or neck piece, worn over a heavy buffcoat. High boots replaced leg armor.
