cabinets of curiosities (rooms) (cabinets (rooms), <social and sitting spaces>, ... Components (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Rooms designed to house collections of various objects, typically fossils, botanical rarities, shells, taxidermy, horns, tusks, skeletons, minerals, small artworks such as medallions and statuettes, and other items that often had been collected during exploring and trading voyages. Items were typically arranged in cabinets as well as on the walls and ceilings. Popular in 16th- and 17th-century Europe, cabinets of curiosities focused on the strange and unusual, and have been described as the forerunner to the natural history museum and other modern museums.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 流行於十六至十七世紀的歐洲，用於收藏各種珍奇物件的房間，包括化石、稀有植物、貝殼、動物標本、動物角和獠牙、骨骸、礦石、獎章和小雕像等小型藝術品，以及其他探險和貿易航行過程中所蒐集到的物件，通常擺放於櫥櫃、牆面及天花板上。珍奇異物陳列室被視為自然史博物館和其他現代博物館的先驅。 |
| Dutch ..... Kamers met collecties van verschillende objecten, meestal fossielen, botanische rariteiten, schelpen en opgezette dieren, evenals kleine kunstwerken zoals medaillons en beeldjes, opgesteld in kabinetten, op de muren en aan het plafond. Rariteitenkabinetten waren in de 16de en 17de eeuw populair in Europa. Ze richtten zich op het vreemde en het ongewone en worden wel gezien als de voorloper van de hedendaagse musea. |
| German ..... Raum, in dem verschiedene Objekte untergebracht sind, typischerweise Fossilien, botanische Raritäten, Muscheln, Tierpräparate, Hörner, Stoßzähne, Skelette, Mineralien, kleine Kunstwerke wie etwa Medaillons und Statuetten und andere Dinge, welche häufig bei Entdeckungs- und Handelsreisen gesammelt worden sind. Die Objekte wurden meist in Vitrinen gezeigt wie auch an Wänden und Decken. Kuriositätenkabinette waren im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert in Europa beliebt, ihr Hauptinteresse galt dem Fremden und Ungewöhnlichen. Sie gelten als Vorläufer des naturhistorischen Museums und anderer moderner Museen. |
