Wade Cup in the Cleveland Museum of Art
D.S. Rice
At the time of its first printing in 1955, the book offered a detailed and comprehensive
study of the Cup's style and compared its features with similarly rare and unique medieval
metal objects. Rice also provided an iconographical explanation for some of the images and
enhanced the quality of the publication through excellent drawings of some of the
fascinating motifs of the Wade Cup. In the 1957, the late Richard Ettinghausen published
what was originally intended as a review of Rice's monograph in the form of a lengthy
article (Ars Orientalis, II, 1957, pp. 327-66). Of great importance are Ettinghausen's
attribution of the Cup's provenance to Khorasan of the early 13th century rather than
Azarbaijan of the late thirteenth century.
