Pendant in the form of a seated cat late 16th–early 17th century Baroque pearl with enameled gold mounts and with pendant pearls
The tiny animal of this pendant has the expectant look of an impatient house cat awaiting its bowl of cream. A design for a comparable jewel with a seated but somewhat more placid cat appears in a drawing by Gabriell Gomar, dated 1603, from the Llibres de Passanties, a set of volumes in the Barcelona Archivo Histórico de la Ciudad, containing the master drawings of applicants for admission to the Barcelona goldsmiths’ guild. The drawing was illustrated by Priscilla E. Muller, who noted that similar jewels had previously been considered to be German.[1] From the evidence provided by the design, however, Yvonne Hackenbroch has attributed this jewel to a Spanish goldsmith working about 1580 to 1590. The Spanish design shows the cat seated on a cushion-like base decorated with ornamental scrolling. The base of this jewel consists of an oval plinth with openwork guilloche-patterned sides. The underside, possibly a later replacement, is decorated with enameled birds and foliage that owe their inspiration to the enamels associated with such northern centers as Augsburg and Prague.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791).
Mozart wrote Symphony No. 30 in D major, K. 202/186b in Salzburg, completing it on May 5, 1774. The work is scored for two oboes, bassoon, two horns, two trumpets, timpani and strings, but the timpani part has been lost; There have been attempts to reconstruct the timpani part.
The finale starts off with a falling dotted fanfare motif similar to the one that starts the opening movement. The answering phrase and the movement’s second theme have a contradanse character.
Haydn in 1785 told Mozart’s father, Leopold: “I tell you before God, and as an honest man, your son is the greatest composer known to me by person and repute, he has taste and what is more the greatest skill in composition.”
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-91) - Fantasia for Piano in d-minor, KV 397. Performed by Jörg Demus, fortepiano.
