Tupinambá Mantle Fuels Debate on Repatriation of Brazilian Relics

The National Museum of Rio will receive 400-year-old indigenous clothing that was in Denmark

For a mantle to be woven by the Tupinambá indigenous people, the territory needs to be calm. With a cotton thread sealed with beeswax, which gives the piece resistance, feathers from different birds are sewn together.

Two years ago, the last garment made had 3,500 feathers and took four months to be woven. The new mantles have awakened a knowledge that was dormant due to the distance between the Tupinambás and the sacred garments of their ancestors, all of them currently in Europe.

Now, just over one meter long and 60 centimeters wide, the tupinambá mantle made in the 17th century with feathers from the ibis, a red bird that inhabits the Brazilian coast, will be returned to Brazil.

It will be received and kept by the Museu Nacional do Rio ( National Museum of Rio). The piece was donated by the Nationalmuseet, in Copenhagen (Denmark), where it had been since 1689.

There is something with a beautiful old museum building with beautiful paintings. This museum is based in Ribe, the oldest town of Denmark. There was art made by the artist couple Ancher in Skagen and I loved the way they used light in their paintings.

Kristian Zahrtmann (March 31, 1843 - 1917) was a Danish history painter who specialized in the figure of Leonora Christina, whose eventful life as the wife of traitor Corfitz Ulfeldt he depicted in a great many canvases. Contemporaries  amused themselves by saying that Leonora and Zahrtmann’s mother were the only women he ever showed any interest in…

Zahrtmann also painted many portraits while abroad in Italy, and frequently depicted males in Biblical and mythological scenes. Here is another bizarre work by him, showing the Swedish Queen Kristina (1626 - 89) who abdicated, moved to Rome and converted to Catholicism. In this canvas the ex-Queen is shown lifting her skirts to warm her buttocks near a stove in the Palazzo Corsini...

Above: Dronning Kristina i Palazzo Corsini, 1908 - oil on canvas (SMK).

Five Days in Copenhagen

Photo by Shvets Anna on Pexels.com Many years ago, I had the lucky experience of spending my spring break in Copenhagen while my husband was traveling there on a business trip. Spring break is one of the perks of being a teacher! While he worked, I got a chance to roam the city alone with no particular agenda each day. Looking back, it was once of the most relaxing trips I’ve ever taken. That…

I visited Klosterlund museum in Denmark. It is next to a lake where many archeological finds were made. I really wanted to visit it since the Hammerenup girl is there. An iron age grave with the most complete dress. It's a beautiful red dress with white stripes. Only her clothes and her hair did survive. The best thing was that it was free to visit the museum. I did get the archeological report of the Hammerenup girl at the little museum store.
