IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 156452 accession number: M.31 & A-1933 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Tuesday 5 March 2024 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Copper, enamelled in grisaille with flesh pink on a black ground, appearing very dark manganese-brown at the edges. The hemispherical bowl of the cup is supported on a vase-shaped knop on top of a bell-shaped circular foot. The low domed cover has a flange round the edge, and a raised central area with a replacement finial in the form of a horizontal metal grotesque mask. This is held in position on the underside by a lump of red sealing wax. The interior of the cup is decorated with the Creation of Adam, surrounded by a broad black border. God stands on the right. He is bearded and crowned and wears a voluminous long gown. He extends his left hand towards the nude figure of Adam lying on the ground to the left. In the landscape background there are hills and a lake with three sea monsters in it; trees on either side behind the figures; and between them, many animals, including oxen, a pelican, a lion, a camel, a goat, a rabbit, and a cat stalking a mouse, and, on the right of God, a stag and a hind. The underside of the bowl is decorated with a radiating design of four grotesque masks, curling strapwork, swags and beading. The initials '.I.C.' are painted below one mask on the strapwork. Round the rim there is an egg and tongue border. The vase-shaped knop is decorated with three female masks and swags, with a white band above, and on the foot, is a battle scene al antica, with nude warriors on foot and on horseback. The outer edges of the foot and rim are white. The cover, a replacement, is decorated on the exterior with a central flowerhead surrounded by four leonine masks on curling strapwork, around which is a continuous procession of revelling putti wearing vine wreaths in their hair. One is seated in a chariot, the next holds a ewer, two walk together behind another accompanied by a goat, two skip along behind a trumpet player, the next holds a large jar above his head, the next sits holding a vine branch and the last carries a basket of grapes above his head. Around the scene there is a border of bound laurel, and on the flange, remnants of a gilded border no longer legible. The underside is decorated with a radiating design of four winged putto's heads linked by swags over strapwork surrounded by gilt arabesques, and remnants of a gilded guilloche border. object type: Copper, enamelled en grisaille and gilded title: standing cup NOTES ----- type: history note value: Cup: uncertain before Alfred Aaron de Pass (1861–1952), .
