O vaso Bryant

1876
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 706
Para homenagear o poeta e editor de jornal William Cullen Bryant por ocasião de seu octogésimo aniversário, alguns de seus amigos encomendaram “um vaso comemorativo de desenho original e excelente acabamento”, que “encarna. . . as lições de sua carreira literária e civismo”. O desenho, que combina elementos do estilo neo-renascentista e esteticista, consiste de um vaso grego de estilo decorado com motivos e imagens simbólicas que sugerem a vida e obra de Bryant. Feito pela Tiffany & Co. em Nova Iorque e concluído em 1876, o vaso foi doado ao Metropolitan no ano seguinte. Foi o primeiro objeto de prata norte-americano a fazer parte do acervo do Museu.
