It is stated that the statue, a work by the renowned sculptor, was obtained by Dr. C. L. Kuhn, Curator of the Germanic Museum. The statue is described as a significant acquisition and is noted to be a sculpture of a woman, which has been independently loaned to the Germanic Museum from the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
German Article:
The German article, titled "Das Germanic Museum erhält die berühmte Lehmbruck-Statue," translates roughly to "The Germanic Museum obtains the famous Lehmbruck statue." It discusses the unveiling of a new exhibit in the museum. The text mentions that the museum has a significant new acquisition, a statue by Lehmbruck, which is placed in a new room designed to showcase modern sculptures. The article highlights the importance of this new addition and its relevance to the museum's collection, emphasizing its role in reflecting contemporary art trends.
The newspaper clipping appears to be part of a larger newspaper page, with the edges showing some wear and tear, indicating age and frequent use. The date, December 12, 1931, is printed prominently at the top of both articles.
The image displays an open scrapbook or album with two newspaper clippings pasted onto the right-hand page. The page is dated "Crimson, Dec. 12, 1931" at the top, with the title "Germania, Dec. 12, 1931" written next to it.
The first clipping on the left, titled "GERMANIC MUSEUM OBTAINS FAMOUS LEHMBRUCK STATUE," reports that an important statue, a work of the famous sculptor, has been obtained by Dr. E. L. Kahn, Curator of the Germanic Museum. The statue, a representation of a woman, was loaned indefinitely to the Germanic Museum by the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
The second clipping on the right, written in German, appears to be an article from a German newspaper. It mentions the Germanic Museum at Harvard University and discusses the significance and details of the statue by Lehmbruck (likely a misspelling of Lehmbruck). The text is somewhat challenging to read due to the small font size, but it elaborates on the importance of the statue and its artist.
The left-hand page is blank, and the binding of the scrapbook is visible along the left edge. The overall condition of the pages appears to be good, with some minor signs of aging.
