Sherri Koehler (she/her)<a href="https://penfount.social/@penfount" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@penfount</a> Here’s one of my favorites from the 2024 Inkvent calendar. This one definitely a candidate for a full bottle.Day 8 is Marley, a purple gray with some amazing chromatography with a rose hue and a vivid teal making an appearance.Swatches are made on Canson, cold press 140lb watercolor paper with a brass Kakimori nib. I’m using a self-inking stamp from Midori that has an oil based ink. My wife spotted this stamp at a Kinokuniya Portland visit.<a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Inkvent2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Inkvent2024</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/day8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#day8</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/DiamineInkventCalendar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DiamineInkventCalendar</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/FountainPenInk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FountainPenInk</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/DiamineInk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DiamineInk</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Marley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Marley</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/gray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gray</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/purple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#purple</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/AdventCalendar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AdventCalendar</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/DipPen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DipPen</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Kakimori" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kakimori</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/KakimoriBrassNib" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KakimoriBrassNib</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/InkSwatches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InkSwatches</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/CansonPaper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CansonPaper</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ColdPressWatercolorPaper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ColdPressWatercolorPaper</a>

Early Modern DiplomacyUnder this great hill I lie buried Mighty elephant which the King Manuel Having conquered the Orient Sent as captive to Pope Leo X. At which the Roman people marvelled, -- A beast not seen for a long time, And in my brutish breast they perceived human feelings. Fate envied me my residence in the blessed Latium And had not the patience to let me serve my master a full three years. But I wish, oh gods, that the time which Nature would have assigned to me, and Destiny stole away, You will add to the life of the great Leo. He lived seven years He died of angina He measured twelve palms in height. Giovanni Battista Branconio dell'Aquila Privy chamberlain to the pope And provost of the custody of the elephant, Has erected this in 1516, the 8th of June, In the fourth year of the pontificate of Leo X. That which Nature has stolen away Raphael of Urbino with his art has restored.

Early Modern DiplomacyHowever, the friendship between <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Pope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pope</a> and <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/elephant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elephant</a> was short-lived: In June 1516, Hanno fell seriously ill; he could barely breathe and had convulsions. Pope Leo called in his own doctors, who diagnosed angina due to the shortness of breath. The animal was also suffering from constipation, and the doctors decided to treat it with a laxative, which, in accordance with common <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/earlyModern" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#earlyModern</a> practice, was enriched with a large amount of gold and administered to the elephant in a high dosage in view of its size. The treatment was ineffective; the animal died on 8 June 1516 and was interred in the Cortile del Belvedere. His skeletal was discovered in 1962 during construction work on the cooling system. In contrary to first assumptions it did not belong to <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/dinosaur" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dinosaur</a> but an elephant.

Early Modern DiplomacyThe <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/pope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pope</a> affection for his exotic pet manifested itself in various ways: 1) He showed it in occasional public performances in which the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/elephant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elephant</a> bowed and knelt when called upon, sprayed water around, danced to music and apparently performed all kinds of tricks. 2) This affection is expressed in the stories of spectators who saw the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Pope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pope</a> playing with Hanno on a Sunday when the public was allowed to visit the enclosure and noticed the Pope's devoted clumsiness. 3) Out of concern for Hanno's health, the Pope refused to lend the elephant to relatives elsewhere.

Early Modern DiplomacyHanno was a white elephant that was gifted to <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Pope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pope</a> Leo X upon his election by the Manuel I, king of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Portugal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Portugal</a>.However, Hanno was not the first <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/elephant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elephant</a> within <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/emdiplomacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emdiplomacy</a>. We can trace the tradition of sending elephants as diplomatic gifts back to the year 800. It became a regular custom first in the 13th century. Diplomatic gifts and especially exotic gifts or animals were quite common during the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/earlyModern" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#earlyModern</a> period. They should reflect or even enhance both the giver’s and receiver’s honour and rank. <a href="https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110672008-035/html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110672008-035/html</a> (2/8) <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/NewDiplomaticHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NewDiplomaticHistory</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#histodons</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/adventCalendar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#adventCalendar</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/AdventCalendar2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AdventCalendar2024</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@histodons</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/historikerinnen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@historikerinnen</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/earlymodern" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@earlymodern</a>

Early Modern DiplomacyTsar Aleksei Mikhailovich promoted Ordin-Nashchokin to the rank of ‘conciliar courtier’. Having concluded the Andrusovo armistice with <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Poland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Poland</a> in 1667, which was beneficial for <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Russia</a>, he was granted the rank of boyar and Keeper of the Seal, later on becoming the Head of the Ambassadorial Chancery. Thus, the case of Ordin-Nashchokin who came from provincial gentry and had an extraordinary career was especially important as he received this post due to his personal achievements in the field of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/emdiplomacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emdiplomacy</a>.

Early Modern DiplomacyFirst in 1656 Ordin-Nashchokin could be traced in another diplomatic occupation. He facilitated negotiations that led to the conclusion of a treaty of an alliance with <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Courland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Courland</a> and in 1658 the Treaty of Valiesar with <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Sweden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sweden</a> which left <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Russia</a> in the positions of the territories that it had conquered in <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Livonia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Livonia</a> during the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/SecondNorthernWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SecondNorthernWar</a> for three years. Moreover, Russia promised not to carry out mass deportations of Lutherans from these territories. Two years later, in 1660, he also participated in the negotiations leading to the peace of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Kardis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kardis</a> that turned the Valiesar treaty into a permanent peace.

Early Modern DiplomacyThe extension and intensification of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Russia</a>’s international contacts in the 17th century enhanced the status of the Ambassadorial Chancery that was also in charge of managing a number of cities, monasteries and several territorial chanceries. Since 1667 boyars (members of the highest rank of feudal nobility) rather than ‘conciliar secretaries’ were often appointed to head the missions; as an example, one should name Afanasii Ordin-Nashchokin (1605–1680), our <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/emdiplomat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emdiplomat</a> of the day!
