Jmse%202011
This document summarizes a study analyzing over 100 metal artifacts from pre-Columbian cultures in northern Peru between 1000 BC and 1375 AD, including the Chavín, Vicús, Moche, and Sicán cultures. Portable X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy was used to determine the elemental compositions of gold, silver, and copper alloys without damaging the artifacts. The study aimed to correlate alloy compositions with cultures, determine the evolution of metallurgy, and better understand the development of tumbaga, a gold-copper alloy. The analysis found the cultures produced alloys with varying elemental mixtures and purities, suggesting changes in metallurgical practices over time.

Kalos inscriptionsuppal
Kalos inscriptions on ancient Greek pottery typically praised the beauty of named individuals. They numbered in the thousands across black-figure and red-figure vases. Though originally meant as declarations of attraction, scholars argue they functioned to promote future performances of the names. Famous examples referenced the youth Leagros, praised by the Pioneer Group artists Euphronios and Smikros. Other inscriptions lauded Kleomelos and an unnamed "boy". Kalos graffiti similarly appeared in public spaces, showing how Greeks openly admired beauty across art forms.
Zeus&ganymede cafritz
This document discusses the myth of Zeus and Ganymede. It describes how in ancient Greek myths, Zeus abducted the handsome mortal Ganymede to serve as cupbearer to the gods on Mount Olympus due to Ganymede's great beauty. The myth of Zeus and Ganymede was used to justify pederastic relationships between an older erastes (lover) and a younger eromenos (beloved) in ancient Greece. Depictions of the myth varied but often showed Ganymede's abduction by Zeus, either in eagle or human form, and Ganymede serving as cupbearer amongst the gods.
Komos mills
This document discusses the komos in ancient Greek culture. The komos referred to rowdy, drunken processions that took place at night after symposium drinking parties. These processions allowed aristocratic men to publicly display their power and defiance of social norms, often to the detriment of ordinary citizens. Some cities passed laws to curb the violent excesses of komoi, recognizing them as a threat to democracy. The mutilation of the Hermai statues in Athens was seen as typical behavior of komos participants like Alcibiades, fueling public dislike of the aristocratic symposium lifestyle.

The document discusses ancient Greek attitudes towards relationships between older men and teenage boys:
- Strato describes boys aged 12-17 as desirable objects of love for men, with 16-17 year olds especially so. Any man seeking boys older than this is no longer playing but seeking a lover.
- Ancient Greek law attributed to Solon prohibited men from entering rooms with boys or participating in games with boys who had not reached manhood.
- Pindar's poem references the Greek custom of pederasty and his own attraction to the "fresh young limbs of boys."

- Strato describes boys aged 12-17 as desirable objects of love for men, with 16-17 year olds especially so. Any older than 17 is seen as no longer playing but seeking a lover.
- Ancient Greek law attributed to Solon prohibited men from entering rooms with boys or participating in games with boys who had not reached manhood.
- Pindar's poem references the disgrace that can come from being dominated by lust or women, and expresses the author's own attraction to the "fresh young limbs of boys."
Alcaeus&sappho drinking
This document summarizes political events in Mitylene on the island of Lesbos around 600 BC. It describes the overthrow of the ancestral kings, the Penthilidae, who were replaced by tyrants like Melanchros and Myrsilos. Alcaeus and his companions opposed Myrsilos but later Pittacus switched sides to support him. After Myrsilos died, Pittacus was elected dictator for 10 years to deal with a military threat from Alcaeus and his allies who were exiled but receiving foreign support. The document also provides comparative texts about drinking from Herodotus and the Iliad to provide context for Alcaeus' poems about wine and truth.
Ischia cup
The Ischia Cup from ca. 730-720 BC has an inscription that translates to: "Nestor had a drinking cup good to drink from, but whoever drinks from this one will at once be seized by desire for fair-crowned Aphrodite." Homer's Iliad describes a cup belonging to Nestor that was beautifully crafted with gold nails and doves and required great effort for others to lift, though Nestor could lift it without strain due to his strength despite his old age.
Satyrs
The document lists various ancient Greek vases from the Archaic period, including their names, artists, dates ranging from around 570 BC to 460 BC, and current locations in museums across Europe. It mentions the Francois Vase by Kleitias from around 570 BC in Florence, various works by the Amasis painter and Douris dating to around 530 BC and 490 BC located in Würzburg, Basel, and the British Museum, and other pieces by the Berlin painter, Makron, Providence painter and Pronomos painter in various European cities between 500 BC to 460 BC.
Dionysus slides

The artifacts mentioned include craters, kylikes, amphorae, a stamnos, and a skyphos located in cities such as London, Florence, Munich, Berlin, Paris, Naples and Tarquinia.

Beautiful Girl by Mr. Brainwash is a mixed media artwork on paper done in 2023. It is unique and of course signed by Mr. Brainwash. The picture is a tribute to his own most successful work of art, the Balloon Girl. In this new creation, however, the theme of the little girl is slightly modified.
In Mr. Brainwash’s mixed media artwork titled “Beautiful Girl,” we are presented with a captivating depiction of a little girl adorned in a summer dress, with two playful pigtails framing her face. The artwork exudes a sense of innocence and whimsy, as the girl is shown in a dreamy state, lifting one end of her skirt and looking down as if she were about to dance. Through the use of mixed media, Mr. Brainwash skillfully combines different artistic elements to create a visually striking composition. The vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes bring the artwork to life, evoking a sense of joy and happiness. The attention to detail in the girl’s expression and body language adds depth and character to the piece, allowing viewers to connect with the young protagonist on a personal and emotional level. “Beautiful Girl” is a testament to Mr. Brainwash’s unique artistic style, blending elements of street art, pop art, and contemporary art to create a visually captivating and emotionally resonant artwork.
The use of mixed media in “Beautiful Girl” adds an additional layer of complexity to the artwork. By combining different artistic techniques and materials, such as stencils, spray paint, and collage, Mr. Brainwash creates a dynamic and textured composition that grabs the viewer’s attention. The juxtaposition of different textures and patterns adds depth and visual interest to the piece, while also emphasizing the artist’s eclectic and experimental approach to art-making. The inclusion of collage elements, such as newspaper clippings and torn posters, further enhances the artwork’s urban and contemporary feel. Overall, “Beautiful Girl” is a visually captivating and thought-provoking artwork that showcases Mr. Brainwash’s talent for blending different artistic elements to create a truly unique and engaging piece.
