Melodies and Memories New Victorian Yuletide Exhibition Celebrates Christmas Carols November 27 through January 3

F

estive music and comforting familiar Christmas carols are holiday traditions. This year the Museum of Art’s annual Victorian Yuletide exhibition, opening in the Fountain Elms period rooms November 27, celebrates 19thcentury music and melodies. “O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree, Your branches green delight us.” While the melody for O Tannenbaum is based on traditional folk music, German Ernst Anschutz wrote the modern lyrics in 1824. The words acknowledge the evolution of the Christmas tree as the central holiday decoration. Set for a family gathering and music recital, the parlor period room will feature a floor-to-ceiling tree adorned with glistening strands of antique German glass beads, a nod to the origins of O Tannenbaum and to the many Christmas customs with German origins. No Christmas tree would be complete without presents scattered below. The Museum of Art’s delightful toy collection—featuring colorful doll china, a model stove, dolls, and many cherished toys once owned by Rachel and Maria Williams—will be on view. Surprisingly, not all households featured Christmas trees. Instead many families, including the Williams family of Fountain Elms, enjoyed large public Christmas trees. One early 20th-century version of a public Christmas tree is a craftily fashioned Bethlehem tree. The Museum has carefully recreated this gift-bearing tree in celebration of O Little Town of Bethlehem, a carol that originated in 1865. Each star-shaped

section of the holly-trimmed tree on view in the bedroom will be laden with cherished gifts. Today’s American Christmas customs and carols are a mixture of many adopted from European countries. The Holly and the Ivy, a traditional British folk carol published around 1814, symbolizes Victorian-era homes that were excessively draped in swags of both plants during the holiday season. Holly and ivy arches crisscross the elaborately set dining table in Fountain Elms this season and accent the colorful porcelain, fine crystal glasses and Tiffany silver that grace the table. “We wish you a Merry Christmas, And a happy New Year. Good tidings we bring To you and your kin…” The origin of these familiar lyrics lies in the English tradition of holiday wassailing. Groups of young men, a tankard in hand, traveled from house to house singing. When invited inside, the revelers drank spiced ale to the health of the hosts and demanded “figgy pudding.” The Fountain Elms library is ready to receive carolers and reward them with sweet treats and beverages for their good cheer. Enjoy the cheerful celebrations of the festive season, explore the fascinating history of today’s Christmas customs, and view the extravagant installations during a visit to the Museum’s period rooms over the holidays. Victorian Yuletide is on view through January 3.

The Italian American Nativity

Memory and Miniature: The Art of the Italian Presepe

Sunday, November 15, 2 p.m. Imagined Places and Fragile Landscapes: Italian American Presepi in New York City Joseph Sciorra, Ph.D., Director for Academic and Cultural Programs, John D. Calandra Italian American Institute, Queens College, City University of New York Free and Open to the Public Reception and book signing follows in the Edward Wales Root Sculpture Court. In New York and across the U.S., Italian Americans hold dear the cultural and religious traditions of their heritage, including the Nativity scene, or presepe. While the custom in Italy includes finely crafted miniature landscapes of Italian hill towns and figures of the Holy Family, modern presepi can also be elaborate homemade creations fashioned from unconventional materials, filled with personal narrative, and reflecting modern culture and influences. Folklorist Dr. Joseph Sciorra has documented the elaborate and even fanciful presepi of New Yorkers and draws together his research on Italian American heritage in a brilliantly illustrated and evocative presentation. Following the lecture Dr. Sciorra will sign copies of his books, including the recently published Built with Faith: Italian American Imagination and Catholic Material Culture in New York City, available at the Museum Shop.

Sunday, December 13, 2 p.m. Margot Balboni, Photographer, and Sarah Stanbury, Professor of the Arts and Humanities at the College of the Holy Cross Free and Open to the Public Join Margot Balboni and Sarah Stanbury as they share their unique perspectives on Italian presepe. Light reception follows. Both speakers will be available to sign copies of the exhibition catalogue, available at the Museum Shop.

New Artists at The Museum Shop and Special Sales

Pribble Retrospective Continues

T

he magic that Norman Schillawski captures in his photographs is truly memorable. Schillawski is a photographer from Cicero, N.Y. and a new addition to the artists represented at the Museum Shop. His goal is to create fine art photographs. He feels a fine art photograph is an extension of himself; it must be both technically correct and reflect his artistic inspiration. He says, "There is just something magical that you can take a box, point it at something and capture something beautiful for the world to see or something personal to cherish forever”.

Easton Pribble, Mohawk Wooded Slopes (1986), oil on linen, 36 x 50 in.

T

he Caldwell Gallery Hudson is hosting a retrospective and sale of artist Easton Pribble’s bequest to the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute.
