Cleveland, Ohio, An Underrated Destination!

I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, and I am proud of the incredible city it has become. While I no longer live there, I only have great things to say about my hometown. Hence, it always baffles me when people still coin the city ‘the mistake on the lake.’ Seriously, the unfortunate industrial incident they refer to happened in 1971. Moving on, Cleveland has many fabulous things to see and…

Here's what our friends at the Cleveland Museum of Art write about these four 17th-century paintings entitled "Scenes of Witchcraft" by Salvator Rosa:

A huge upturn in interest in witchcraft emerged during the 1500s in Europe, but by the middle of the next century - at least among the cultured elite of Florence - a backlash arose against the many accusations of sorcery. Artists and writers explored the topic more out of curiosity and amusement, chief among them the poet, painter, and satirist Salvator Rosa, who examined witchcraft with gusto in numerous poems and works of art, including these four paintings. They show a range witch types - from the beautiful enchantress to the old crone to the male sorcerer - and represent activities commonly associated with black magic - levitation, love potions, devil worship, the invocation of demons, and transformation. 

If you think that's awesome, you should browse the museum's collection in JSTOR—lots of great art from a wide variety of cultures and eras, and it's open and free for everyone to view and download!

Happy #InternationalDayOfTheSeal 🦭

Sea Lion Pup Vessel

Moche culture, Peru, 200–850 CE

Ceramic & slip, 19.7 x 15.5 x 16 cm (7 3/4 x 6 1/8 x 6 5/16 in.)

The Cleveland Museum of Art 2014.375

“Sea lions commonly appear in Moche art as effigy vessels, like this appealing pup, or in complex scenes that often show them as the targets of human hunters. They may have been prized in part for the beach pebbles found in their stomachs; modern Peruvian folk healers consider such pebbles to have powerful medicinal qualities. Also, colonial-period natives believed that sea lions carried the dead to off-shore islands, an idea that could date to Moche times.”
