Take a ride alongside the 2016 Bartlett Cup sailing log canoe races that took place on Sunday, September 18, 2016.
The Edward L. Bartlett Cup, a silver repousse’ punch bowl, was originally presented to the commodore of the Baltimore Yacht Club in 1905. When donated to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, it was re-purposed as a perpetual trophy for a museum-sponsored log canoe race, typically the last race of the log canoe season on the Miles River.
CBMM has sponsored this race, which is supported on the river by the Miles River Yacht Club’s Sail Committee, since 1972.

Musée Barbier-Mueller, Genève. Musée Barbier-Mueller, Genève. The Ðông Sơn culture or the Lạc Việt culture (named for modern village Đông Sơn, a village in Thanh Hóa) Bronze Age culture in ancient Vietnam centred on Red River Valley 1000 BC - 1st c AD. Vietnamese historians attribute the culture to the states of Văn Lang and Âu Lạc. Breastplate? this square plate (destined according to some archaeologists, to protect soldiers’ chests), figure remarkable symmetrical decorations, with relatively stylised motifs, representing the well-known boats typical of the Dông Son. Each vessel carries feathered figures, seen in profile, possibly soldiers. The centre of the plaque is ornamented by a geometrical double-hook motif surrounded by fish that are represented in a realistic fashion. Extremely similar double hooks decorate bronzes, basketwork and fabrics in tribal cultures of the Malay Archipelago. It is interesting to note that concentric designs were used into the 20th century in embroidery and are still worn today by the Miao tribe of northern Vietnam. Cast using the lost wax technique, rather than by repoussé (as was long believed), this plate was found with others in the tombs of the region of the Dông Son village in the province of Thanh Hoa. As the plates were discovered next to weapons, they can be assimilated with attributes of masculine warriors. The holes, visible at each corner of the plate, are likely to have been used to attach the breastplate to a war tunic, at one and the same time an element of prestige and a prophylactic object.
Liberty Enlightening the World (French: La liberté éclairant le monde), known more commonly as the Statue of Liberty (Statue de la Liberté), is a large statue that was presented to the United States by France in 1886. It stands at Liberty Island, New York in New York Harbor as a welcome to all visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans. The copper patina-clad statue, dedicated on October 28, 1886, commemorates the centennial of the United States and is a gesture of friendship from France to America. Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi sculpted the statue and obtained a U.S. patent useful for raising construction funds through the sale of miniatures. Alexandre Gustave Eiffel (designer of the Eiffel Tower) engineered the internal structure. Eugène Viollet-le-Duc was responsible for the choice of copper in the statue's construction and adoption of the repoussé technique.
The statue is of a female figure standing upright, dressed in a robe and a seven point spiked rays representing a nimbus (halo), holding a stone tablet close to her body in her left hand and a flaming torch high in her right hand. The tablet bears the words "JULY IV MDCCLXXVI" (July 4, 1776), commemorating the date of the United States Declaration of Independence.
The statue is made of a sheeting of pure copper, hung on a framework of steel (originally puddled iron) with the exception of the flame of the torch, which is coated in gold leaf. It stands atop a rectangular stonework pedestal with a foundation in the shape of an irregular eleven-pointed star. The statue is 151 feet 1 inch (46.5 m) tall, with the pedestal and foundation adding another 154 feet (46.9 m).
Worldwide, the Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons of the United States,[2] and, more generally, represents liberty and escape from oppression. The Statue of Liberty was, from 1886 until the jet age, often one of the first glimpses of the United States for millions of immigrants after ocean voyages from Europe. Visually, the Statue of Liberty appears to draw inspiration from il Sancarlone or the Colossus of Rhodes.
The statue is a central part of Statue of Liberty National Monument, administered by the National Park Service.

St Bartholomew, Ann Street, Brighton, 1872-74.
By Edmund Scott.
Grade l listed.
Looking East.
The church is a single space faced in yellow brick with red brick dressings; the chancel, which occupies the two easternmost of the nine bays, being raised by five steps from the nave. A baldacchino designed by Henry Wilson and erected in 1899-1900 abuts the east end, with antae and pilasters supporting round arches, the antae faced principally in red marble with alabaster foliage capitals of Byzantine inspiration, the superstructure in green with a band of lozenge-patterned marble and a billet moulding forming a cornice.
The interior vault of the baldacchino is inlaid with gold mosaic and mother-of-pearl. The altar is raised by seven steps above the sanctuary and is set against a low wall of pinkish marble which runs under the baldacchino.
The altar frontal is decorated with painted panels by S Bell of 1874. The tabernacle door is of silver repousse work, by Henry Wilson. The lower part of the east wall is decorated with figure panels in mosaic designed by F Hamilton Jackson in 1911, the central panel, framed by the baldacchino, depicting Christ in glory, with angels in marble panels to the sides.
The sanctuary is raised by a single step above the chancel, and has two short communion rails of brass, designed by Henry Wilson and introduced in about 1905, with balusters decorated with medallions in blue enamel and foliage openwork between.
At each of the two front corners of the sanctuary is a candlestick, designed by Henry Wilson,about 15 feet high and consisting of a tapering column of grey and white Tuscan marble and a bronze candleholder with elaborate knop. To either side of the chancel are oak choir stalls with a lettered frieze, designed by Henry Wilson. The east wall above the mosaic and marble work is decorated with panels and diaper work in red brick with a crucifix over the baldacchino designed by S Bell, partly painted and partly incised on encaustic tiles.

What do you think of when you see a crumpled piece of paper? Should it be thrown away? What does it contain...a love letter, angry words, precious information?
This is my chasing and repousse piece for my Camouflage project...so many times we think to say something to someone else, but think better of it, and throw the thought away. Perhaps it is words of love, or anger, etc. There are many reasons to discard those thoughts and emotions, but they never really disappear.
This piece reflects on the permanence of those emotions and thoughts, even when they are crumpled up to be thrown away.

Musiques et danses des 4 coins du monde
Le Festival Folklores du Monde revient cet automne à Saint-Malo ! Ce festival à l’identité celtique revient chaque année à Saint-Malo depuis 1996. Du 5 au 10 juillet 2022, Le Festival Folklores du Monde s’invite dans les quartiers malouins, plus particulièrement dans le quartier de Paramé pour vous faire découvrir les musiques et danses présentes aux 4 coins du monde. En après-midi ou en soirée, de nombreuses animations sont prévues : concerts, danse, animations de rues ou encore du spectacle vivant.
Comme chaque année, le festival Folklores du Monde revient à Saint-Malo cet été ! Pour sa 25e édition, il se tiendra du 5 au 12 juillet 2022. Un rendez-vous incontournable pour ceux qui aiment découvrir d’autres cultures, le tout en danse et en musique !
Des artistes internationaux à Saint-Malo
Les bretons ont beau avoir la réputation d’être chauvins, ils n’en sont pour autant pas moins ouverts à d’autres cultures ! Cette année encore, des artistes internationaux sont invités à défiler dans les quartiers malouins, principalement dans le quartier de Paramé.
Le public malouin pourra donc découvrir des artistes venus d’Afrique du Sud, de Cuba, d’Équateur, du Mexique et de la Tchéquie, grâce aux artistes et groupes suivants :
• Ama Zebra,
• Kamagua,
• Nukanchick,
• La Compañia Folclórica Sinaloense,
• Brnensky Valasek.
Des provinces françaises sont également invitées : c’est le cas pour Tahiti, la Nouvelle-Aquitaine et bien évidemment la Bretagne, avec l’ensemble folklorique de danse et musique traditionnelle Quic-en-Groigne.
Enfin, une place particulière sera donnée à la tête d’affiche 2022 : le groupe Sonerien Du fêtera avec le public ses 50 ans de scène. Un anniversaire à ne pas manquer le 9 juillet prochain : ambiance festive garantie !
À Saint-Malo, la billetterie du festival Folklores du Monde est ouverte
Après une année blanche en 2020 et une suivante repoussée à l’automne 2021, tout rentre enfin dans l’ordre pour cette 26e édition du festival malouin Folklores du Monde.
Le grand rendez-vous se déroulera du 5 au 10 juillet. Avec cette année, une nouveauté : un démarrage d’enfer le mardi 5 juillet. Après des animations devant la gare le matin et sur l’esplanade Saint-Vincent l’après-midi, place à un défilé d’ouverture dans les rues de l’Intra-Muros à compter de 18 h, suivis d’une soirée chants de marin et d’un spectacle de danse irlandaise.
Une soirée retient plus particulièrement l’attention : le samedi 9 juillet, avec le spectacle du groupe Sonerien Du, qui fête cette année ses 50 ans de scène. Autre moment fort et gratuit : la grande parade des Nations, le dimanche 10 juillet, à 11 h, boulevard de Rochebonne.
Il ne faut pas tarder à s’inscrire aux spectacles proposés par les pays invités : République tchèque, Madagascar, Irlande, Équateur, Mexique…
Dimanche 10 juillet est venu clôturer cette semaine de festival Folklores du Monde à Saint-Malo (Ille-et-Vilaine). Pour ce grand défilé, 18 troupes ont animé les rues de Paramé avant d'arriver au parc des Chênes ou de nombreuses animations attendaient un public venu en nombre.
Dans ces groupes de danseurs et de musiciens, étaient invitées cette année six délégations étrangères. Madagascar, l'Equateur, la République Tchèque, le Mexique, le Pérou et le Portugal sont venus gonfler les rangs du défilé. Bien sûr de nombreux bagadoù étaient là pour enjouer les passants.
Le coup d’envoi de la 26e édition du festival Folklores du Monde a été donné mardi 5 juillet. Durant cinq jours, Saint-Malo vibre au rythme des sonorités et danses de tous les continents.
Les rues d’intra-muros ont résonné aux sons venus de République tchèque, Madagascar, Pérou ou encore d’une formation bretonne aux allures quelque peu loufoque (Expédition Côtes du Nord). En ouverture de la 26e édition de son festival, Folklores du Monde a organisé un défilé haut en couleur dans la cité corsaire. De quoi ravir les visiteurs, parfois étonnés de rencontrer ce mélange de cultures déambulant sur les pavés d’intra-muros.
Une invitation culturelle au voyage
Avec deux spectacles par soir, au Panier Fleuri et à la mairie annexe de Paramé, le festival Folklores du Monde propose, une nouvelle fois, un mini-tour du monde jusqu’au 10 juillet. Une place de choix est aussi réservée à la culture bretonne sur la scène du festival, avec notamment les 50 ans des Sonerien Du, programmés le samedi 9 juillet. Après deux années marquées par les contraintes sanitaires, cette 26e édition est aussi celle du retour de la grande parade des Nations. Elle s’élancera le dimanche 10 juillet à 11 h du boulevard de Rochebonne pour rejoindre le Parc des Chênes.

Danish National Museum in Copenhagen 2017
The Gundestrup cauldron is a richly decorated silver vessel, thought to date from between 200 BC and 300 AD,[1][2] or more narrowly between 150 BC and 1 BC.[3] This places it within the late La Tène period or early Roman Iron Age. The cauldron is the largest known example of European Iron Age silver work (diameter: 69 cm (27 in); height: 42 cm (17 in)). It was found, dismantled with the other pieces stacked inside the base, in 1891 in a peat bog near the hamlet of Gundestrup in the Aars parish of Himmerland, Denmark (56°49′N 9°33′E).[4][5][6] It is now usually on display in the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen, with replicas at other museums; in 2015-16 it is in exhibitions in London and then Edinburgh on The Celts.[7]
The cauldron is not complete, and now consists of a rounded cup-shaped bottom making up the lower part of the cauldron, usually called the base plate, above which are five interior plates and seven exterior ones; a missing eighth exterior plate would be needed to encircle the cauldron, and only two sections of a rounded rim at the top of the cauldron survive. The base plate is mostly smooth and undecorated inside and out, apart from a decorated round medallion in the centre of the interior. All the other plates are heavily decorated with repoussé work, hammered from beneath to push out the silver. Other techniques were used to add detail, and there is extensive gilding and some use of inlaid pieces of glass for the eyes of figures. Other pieces of fittings were found. Altogether the weight is just under 9 kilograms.[8]
Despite the fact that the vessel was found in Denmark, it was probably not made there or nearby; it includes elements of Gaulish and Thracian origin in the workmanship, metallurgy, and imagery. The techniques and elements of the style of the panels relate closely to other Thracian silver, while much of the depiction, in particular of the human figures, relates to the Celts, though attempts to relate the scenes closely to Celtic mythology remain controversial. Other aspects of the iconography derive from the Near East.[9]

The Edward L. Bartlett Cup, a silver repousse’ punch bowl, was originally presented to the commodore of the Baltimore Yacht Club in 1905. When donated to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, it was re-purposed as a perpetual trophy for a museum-sponsored log canoe race, typically the last race of the log canoe season on the Miles River.
CBMM has sponsored this race, which is supported on the river by the Miles River Yacht Club’s Sail Committee, since 1972.

The Battersea Shield is one of the most significant pieces of ancient Celtic art found in Britain. It is a sheet bronze covering of a (now vanished) wooden shield decorated in La Tène style. The shield is on display in the British Museum, while a replica is housed in the Museum of London.
The Battersea Shield is currently dated by the museum to c.350–50 BC, though later dates up to the early 1st century AD have previously been suggested. A date in the later part of this range is usually preferred; Miranda Aldhouse-Green is typical in using "2nd-1st century BC". It was dredged from the bed of the River Thames in London in 1857, during excavations for the predecessor of Chelsea Bridge; in the same area workers found large quantities of Roman and Celtic weapons and skeletons in the riverbed, leading many historians to conclude that the area was the site of Julius Caesar's crossing of the Thames during the 54 BC invasion of Britain, although it is now thought that the shield was a votive offering, which probably predates the invasion.
The Battersea Shield is made of several different pieces, held together by rivets concealed under the decorative elements. It is decorated with repoussé decoration, engraving, and enamel. The decoration is in the typically Celtic La Tène style, consisting of circles and spirals. There are 27 small round compartments in raised bronze with red cloisonné enamel; the bronze within the compartment forms a sort of swastika, thought to have been associated with good luck and also "solar energy". Enamel was a Celtic speciality, and reflects the use of red Mediterranean coral inlays in other British Celtic artefacts, such as the Witham Shield, and here may perhaps be considered as an imitation of imported coral, though the use of enamel allows a more elaborate design. Some scholars have read a reversible human face into the decoration at the points where the smaller circle link to the larger one.
The bronze sheet is said by archaeologists to be too thin to have offered effective protection in combat, and shows no signs of battle damage. It is therefore believed that the shield was cast into the river as a votive offering, and made either as a "parade piece" or status symbol or specifically for votive offering. The metal plate of the shield that remains would have been fixed onto a plain, wooden or leather shield behind it (Wikipedia).

When donated to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, it was re-purposed as a perpetual trophy for a museum-sponsored log canoe race, typically the last race of the log canoe season on the Miles River.
CBMM has sponsored this race, which is supported on the river by the Miles River Yacht Club’s Sail Committee, since 1972.
