Death as Juggler (Revolution) (Tod als Jongleur Revolution) Christian Rohlfs (German, 1849-1939). Death as Juggler (Revolution) (Tod als Jongleur Revolution), 1918-1919. Color woodcut in yellow, red, and black on heavy wove paper, Image: 14 3/8 x 18 1/4 in. (36.5 x 46.4 cm). In Christian Rohlfs’s roughly hewn, unsettling woodcut, two women recoil from a skeleton juggling symbols of earthly power—an orb, a scepter, and a crown. The image is a reference to the danse macabre, or dance of death, a common medieval pictorial motif that served as a reminder that death is inevitable and impartial, coming for all regardless of class. Rohlfs likely found renewed purpose for the theme in the wake of World War I. Rohlfs made his first prints at the age of sixty after seeing an exhibition of Die Brücke (The Bridge) artists in 1908. He worked almost exclusively in woodcut, hand-printing his own blocks, sometimes not in a press but by applying pressure to the sheet with a heavy object, and exper

Amr, Disguised as Mazmahil the Surgeon, Practices Quackery on the Sorcerers of Antali Attributed to Dasavanta. Amr, Disguised as Mazmahil the Surgeon, Practices Quackery on the Sorcerers of Antali, ca. 1570. Opaque watercolor and gold on cotton, mounted on paper, 31 x 25 in. (78.7 x 63.5cm). When the Mughal emperors conquered northern India, they brought with them a taste for Persian aesthetics. Early in their reign, the Mughals brought Persian artists from Iran to teach painting techniques and styles to artists in India. The product of this bicultural painting workshop looks very different from both Persian and indigenous Indian painting, in part because the artists were looking at European art as well. This is a folio from the oversized manuscript known as the Qissa-i Amir Hamza, or Hamza-Nama, one of the most ambitious projects completed by the imperial painting workshop under the Mughal emperor Akbar (reigned 1556-1605). All of the paintings are on cloth, with Persian text written
