IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 167379 accession number: CAL 4-2007 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Tuesday 25 February 2020 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: It is said it was because Adam ate the apple that he was lost, or fell. I say, it was because of his claiming something for his own, and because of his I, Mine, Me, and the like. Had he eaten seven apples, and yet never claimed anything for his own, he would not have fallen; but as soon as he called something his own, he fell, and would have fallen if he had never touched an apple. Documentation of the work: The piece was exhibited in The Twain Shall Meet, an exhibition I co-curated at the Alhambra National Gallery in Lahore, Pakistan, in 2005 (and illustrated in the catalogue), and in Practising Contentment at the Crafts Study Centre, 2006. It makes oblique references to the events of September 11th in the distrorted grid and the footprints/jelly bean/falling object stamps crossing the top of the page. title: CAL_4-2007.jpg LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Manuscripts and Printed Books collection: Calligraphy Collection creditline: Given by Ewan Clayton STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/167379 CATEGORIES ------ category: calligraphy DATING ------ creation date: 2005 - 2005 creation date earliest: 2005 creation date latest: 2005 CREATORS -------- maker: Clayton, Ewan DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: mm value: 581 dimension: Width units: mm value: 348 CITATIONS -------- the Edge: the magazine of the Calligraphy and Lettering Arts Society --- IMAGES surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/msspb/msspb5/CAL_4_2007.jpg height: 760 pixels width: 466 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/msspb/msspb5/CAL_4_2007.jpg height: 760 pixels width: 466 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/msspb/msspb5/CAL_4_2007.jpg height: 760 pixels width: 466 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/msspb/msspb5/preview_CAL_4_2007.jpg height: 408 pixels width: 250 pixels
