Resumen
During the 18th century, collections of coins and medals were familiar sights. The collectors ranged from scholars to amateurs, men and women and the collectables tempted collectors for various reasons: they signified wealth and knowledge, they rendered historical events or current politics in material form, or they were miniature artworks and financial investments. Also, the visual and material culture that involved collecting coins and medals consisted of cabinets and numismatic publications. But how were numismatic collections amassed, and how were they used? What did it mean to own a coin

Resumen
Royal gardeners and collectors of curiosities, father and son John Tradescant, were praised as world-travellers, who created a miniature world for their contemporaries to enjoy. But whose world was it based on – and whose world did it convey? In this article, I examine the objects and plants in seventeenth-century English cabinets of curiosities as both personal and culturally collective souvenirs, through which I reveal contemporary ideas about mobility, travel, and the concept of first-hand experience in Early modern England. As an example, I use the collection known as the Tradescant Ark wi

Resumen
As multitechnological objects, miniatures are exposed to many destructive processes within all component materials. Their results and effects overlap and initiate further damage. In miniature collections, glass performs various functions. It is most often present in the form of cover glass, which, characteristically, is usually convex. It also often plays the role of a painting support in many techniques used for creating miniatures. Glass, as a sensitive material, is subject to complex corrosive processes. It is very complicated and difficult to protect miniatures from these changes.

Resumen
This article examines a collection of miniature objects, now held in museum collections, which were originally made by a Sámi political prisoner in Norway during the mid-19th century as part of an educational programme. The author draws on recent developments in the theory of miniaturization to consider these miniatures as examples of prison op-art autoethnography: communicative devices which seek to address broad and complex social issues through the process of the creation and distribution of semiophorically functionless mimetic objects of reduced scale and complexity, and which reflect the

Resumen
This paper examines the cultural antagonisms of Martial's Apophoreta 170–82, a unique series of epigrammatic gift-tags for artworks to be given away during the Saturnalia. In these poems, I argue, Martial thematizes and enacts Rome's transformative appropriation of cultural capital from Greece and elsewhere. First, he adopts the Hellenistic trope of the ekphrastic gallery tour in order to evoke the “museum spaces” of the Flavian city, where artworks became testaments to the power and culture of Rome (Section 1). While evoking these masterpiece collections, however, the epigrams in fact describ

For more than two centuries St Petersburg, the capital of the former Russian Empire, has been famous for its collections of Ethiopian manuscripts, objects of art and documents concerning Ethiopian history. They are concentrated in three state institutions and in several private collections of African art.

Some interesting and unpublished items were generally describedand their miniatures published.

Resumen
“Red Collecting” is a widespread phenomenon in contemporary China. It refers to the collecting of objects from the Chinese Communist Party’s history. Red Collecting has received only minimal treatment in English-language scholarly literature, much of which focuses on individual object categories (primarily propaganda posters and Chairman Mao badges) and overemphasises the importance of Cultural Revolution objects within the field. Because of this limited focus, the collectors’ motivations have been similarly circumscribed, described primarily in terms of either neo-Maoist nostalgia or the purs

Resumen
This article documents the discovery of ‘bismuth white’ on three late eighteenth-century portrait miniatures in the Victoria and Albert Museum collections, painted by renowned English artist George Engleheart. Metallic bismuth and bismuth-containing minerals have been known for centuries and were used on various types of artistic production, from German Wismutmalerei to medieval manuscripts and Renaissance paintings. However, until now they had never been documented on portrait miniatures, despite documentary evidence that suggests their use. The Raman analysis of the three miniatures shows th

This thesis examines the portrayal of gentleman collectors in late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century literature, arguing that they often find themselves challenged and destabilised by their collections. The collecting depicted contrasts revealingly with the Enlightenment practices of classification, taxonomy, and commodification, associated with the growth of both the public museum and the market economy. The dominance of such practices was bound up with the way they promoted subject-object relations that defined and empowered masculine identity. In the Dialectic of Enlightenment Theodor

Queen Christina of Sweden (1626-1689)--one of the most celebrated, if controversial, converts of all times--settled in the papal city after her abdication in 1654. Her palace--the Palazzo Riario (today Corsini)--became one of Rome's leading cultural institutions: a site where learned, artistic, and elite culture converged. This study examines Christina's practice of collecting, and argues that her ambition was to create a center for learning and the arts in the Palazzo Riario modeled on the ancient Musaeum of Alexandria.

The collection of Symmachus’s letters is one of the largest to survive from Antiquity, but the notorious brevity and apparent emptiness of the letters have been until recently the object of scholarly censure and dismissal. A careful and unbiased approach, however, suggests that the carefully wrought brevitas of Symmachus’s letters is a creative response to the challenges posed by the greater restrictions imposed on letter writing in his times. Ultimately, an interesting tension emerges between the autobiographical monumentality of the macrotext, represented by the letter collection as a whole,

The results allow us to define the precise chronology of these miniatures and to discuss whether the life-size models of these miniatures were in fact used to navigate these coasts. The conclusion proposes to understand these objects as miniatures, and as such, as representations that do not necessarily reflect past realities in a direct way.

Abstract The nineteenth century was an interesting period for numismatics in China: a hundred scholars actively collected coins at that time, major collectors engaged in research, and in consequence fifty books or essays were published on the subject. The numismatists of that time developed a scientific approach to a scholar’s hobby, coin collecting. Their work was greatly influenced by the kaozhengxue movement—a textual criticism approach developed in China in the second half of the seventeenth century.
