Attribué à Martin Van Cleve (1527 - 1581) LA DANSE DE LA MARIÉEPanneau de chêne, renforcé41 X 59 CMFentes, restaurations et petits manques Sujet très populaire, la danse de la mariée est un thème récurrent dans l’oeuvre de Martin Van Cleve.

Cependant, issu de la même génération que Pieter Brueghel l’Ancien, Martin Van Cleve a sans doute eu directement connaissance de la composition originale, connue par une réplique datée de 1566 et conservée à Detroit (voir K. Ertz, Pieter Brueghel der Jungere, Die Gemälde, Luca Verlag, 2000, t. II, p. 665, repr. 541).

Maxwell (James Clerk, 1831-1879). Autograph letter signed, Glenlair, Dalbeattie, 13 May 1869, to [Archibald] Smith, ‘Here are Green’s results for the magnetic state of a soft iron cylinder of radius and length 2l [lambda]. He uses a coefficient g which is the same as Poissons k which cannot exceed 1. It is related to Thalen’s Neumanns K thus.’, continuing afters some algebraic equations, ‘In any paper of mine when I have used a symbol m [mu] (corresponding to Faraday’s idea of the conductivity of a medium for magnetic induction)’, continuing with further algebra and explanations, referring to Thalen once more who ‘gives K = 32’, signed ‘J. Clerk Maxwell’ on the third page and giving an extra note on the calculations of three values of K and p below, 3 pages, a little browning at lower margins, old adhesion mark to final blank, 8vo.
