At the top of the page, there is a handwritten heading that reads "Gazette des Beaux-Arts, Supplément, July - August, 1960."

The middle section of the page has a heading written in blue ink that says "Summer School Concert, Aug. 17-18, 1960." Below this heading, there are two similar flyers or announcements.

Azure OpenAI Service, gpt-4.1-mini-2025-04-14

This image shows an archival scrapbook page with various clippings and notes about events in July and August 1960. The heading written in blue ink at the top of the page reads "Gazette des Beaux-Arts, Supplement, July-August, 1960."

There is a small newspaper clipping in French that mentions an exhibition of English landscape drawings from 1750-1850 organized by students with drawings from the Fogg Museum, exhibited at the Busch-Reisinger Museum.

Below that, in handwritten blue ink, it says "Summer School Concert, Aug. 17-18, 1960."

There are two printed event cards from the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Harvard University, announcing concerts by Gustav Leonhardt playing "Organ Music of the Seventeenth Century." The first card is green and refers to the concert on Wednesday, August 17, 1960, at 8:30 p.m. The second card is yellow and refers to the concert on Thursday, August 18, 1960, at 8:30 p.m. Both concerts are open to the public without charge, with reservations for ticket holders until 8:20 p.m.

This image appears to show a page from a scrapbook or album, with several pasted elements on it. At the top of the page, there is a hand-written note that reads "Gazette des Beaux-Arts, Supplement July-August 1960". Below this note, there are two rectangular paper clippings; both are announcements for a Summer School Concert dated August 17-18, 1960.

The paper clippings have the following printed text in common, though the color of the background differs (aqua for the first, yellow for the second):

Busch-Reisinger Museum, Harvard University
GUSTAV LEONHARDT
plays
ORGAN MUSIC OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY

Below this header, each clipping indicates a different date and time for the event but with identical wording otherwise:

For the first (aqua) clipping:

Wednesday, August 17, 1960, at 8:30 p.m.
Open to the public without charge
Seats will be reserved for ticket-holders until 8:20 p.m.

For the second (yellow) clipping:

Thursday, August 18, 1960, at 8:30 p.m.
Open to the public without charge
Seats will be reserved for ticket-holders until 8:20 p.m.

The text suggests these were public events featuring Gustav Leonhardt, likely the renowned harpsichordist and conductor, playing organ music from the 17th century. The repetition of the event on consecutive nights might point to its expected popularity or significance. The event was hosted by the Busch-Reisinger Museum at Harvard University. There is also a partially visible French text underneath the hand-written note, but only fragments are legible, and it seems to be unrelated to the event announcements. The page is mounted in a green border, which could be part of a larger book or collection.
