A GERMAN PARCEL-GILT SILVER TANKARD
MARK OF JOHANN SULSSEN, HAMBURG, CIRCA 1670
On spreading base chased with ribbon-tied berried laurel leaves, le body chased with a representation of the Testament of Solomon featuring the king depicted as a sorcerer and defying a dragon, the plain side handle with bifurcated thumbpiece, the domed hinged cover chased in centre with a coat-of-arms, later engraved on plain section of the body below the scene with the initials EP, marked underside: town and maker


This tankard is listed in Schliemann but the scene is described as the meeting between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. In fact, it is a depiction of the Testament of Solomon. This narrative, written between the 2nd and 5th centuries BC, tells the story of how Solomon, son of David and king of Jerusalem, receives a ring engraved with a seal from an archangel. This ring allows him to summon demons and either force them to build his Temple or imprison them within the ring. The story ends with Solomon's decline, misadvised by the demons, and its moral is that one should avoid straying from the right path, lest they face dire consequences.
