"Aquatic Birds at a Pool", Folio from the Davis Album. Dimensions: Page: H. 8 1/4 in. (21 cm)W. 13 in. (33 cm)Painting: H. 8 1/4 in. (21 cm)W. 13 in. (33 cm)Mat: H. 14 1/4 in. (36.2 cm) W. 19 1/4 in. (48.9 cm). Date: 18th century.This album page contains a highly naturalistic image of water birds surrounded by a floral border that incorporates the images of two figures that appear to be based on European sources. Of the four pages from this album with floral borders, two are inscribed with the name of 'Aliquli Jabbadar, one with the name of Muhammad Zaman, and this one is uninscribed. Although 'Aliquli Jabbadar and Muhammad Zaman were contemporaries and worked in similar styles in the 1660s, 'Aliquli's work contains striking images of birds which suggests that he may have painted this image. The figures in the border, which appears to be from the 18th century, may derive from European prints depicting the young John the Baptist and Mary Magdalene. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, Ne

This painting marked a new direction for OKeeffes evolving modernist style when it was exhibited in 1936 at photographer Alfred Stieglitzs New York-based gallery, An American Place. American Art 1935

In Norse mythology, Thor was the god of thunder, and thus the god of might and war. The son of Odin, he had a magical hammer named Mjollnir that returned to him, a belt of stength, and iron gloves. According to the myth, Thor made war against the giants. In one tale, he carved out three valleys in a mountain in a valley near Utgard (pictured here) when he threw his hammer at a giantt named Shrymir (at right) who was really Utgard-Loki in disguise and using the mountain as a shield. Utgard-Loki was the king of the giants of the city of Utgard. This 1908 illustration is by English artist J.C. Dollman.
