For #Caturday:
Tumblr media
Ceramic bottle modeled in the form of a standing feline, decorated with resist-painted motif. Gallinazo style (aka Virú culture), NW Peru, Early Intermediate Period, c. 200 BCE - 600 CE. Spotted at the American Museum of Natural History NYC.
PS: this vessel may depict the Peruvian subspecies of Pampas Cat aka Northern Colocolo (Leopardus colocola garleppi). The Andean Mountain Cat (Leopardus jacobita) is also often suggested, but their range is more southern and higher elevation than where the Virú were? Also note the stripier legs on the Colocolo similar to the ceramic:

Just for non-french speakers to know : Etoiles says that normally subtitles will be available in Portuguese, Spanish and English for his tour of Le Louvre on this Saturday. I think I saw it was a problem during yesterday's stream at Parc des Princes, so i want to share this news

Went to the Natural History Museum in London two days ago! Saw an ivory-billed woodpecker specimen for the first time, and it was overall a very pleasant time while I stayed there! (The featured displays featuring artworks by J. G. Keulemans was quite a surprise - didn't expect to see one of the best bird artists besides Audubon in the museum.)

Places: Museums
The Elgin Marbles were supposed to be on the Parthenon. For many works of art, a museum is an artificial setting - a zoo, not a natural habitat.

I teased this in my last video (which was all about pirates) and here we are! I went and checked out "Queer at Sea: Tales from the 2SLGBTQ+ Community" at the British Columbia Maritime Museum and it was something else! The queer and trans communities have long been a part of BC’s maritime history and the exhibit conveyed their first hand accounts of love, prejudice, and hope.
I really enjoyed this exhibit and how it was put together. Queer at Sea is text-based with more stories and oral histories than physical objects, but the level of community involvement that bonded this into a fully fledged story is compelling. 
If you would like to support this museum so that they can continue to put on fantastic exhibits like this one, please consider checking them out in person OR you can leave a donation here:

Okay so I finally visited the museum Steven worked at. The first part of the show takes place in London, but the scenes were shot in Budapest, Hungary. Steven’s museum scenes were filmed in the Museum of Fine Arts.
Most of his scenes are in the Marble Halll, the Renaissance Hall and my personal fav, the Romanesque Hall. These halls are actually empty, the Egyptian exhibition is on floor -1. Most of the relics displayed are just part of the set they built I guess, because the Egyptian part of the exhibition is quite small and for example the tall columns are not part of the collection (although I saw the sarcophagi and the crocodile that is shown very briefly in one of the scenes).
Here are some photos and reference images. (Sorry for the bad quality, I can’t make screenshots on my iPad so I took photos of the screen. But hey, I’m fairly sure you remember these scenes from episode one. :D)
The museum from the outside (yes there’s a Hieronymus Bosch exhibiton atm, I checked that one out too):

I wasn’t allowed to take photos at the exhibition (I did anyway haha), but I saw a bunch of tiny stele, ushabtis, sarcophagi, actual mummies and canopic jars too.
Also, every visitor was so focused on Bosch that the halls were basically empty. I stood there in the middle of these vast halls and took them all in. It was kinda catarthic.
