This image shows an open book or document with a piece of paper taped to the left edge and text typed on the right side. The document appears to be a chronology related to the Bauhaus, an influential art and design school that operated in Germany during the early 20th century. The chronology lists significant events by year, from 1925 through 1933, including faculty appointments, resignations, and moves of the school's location. Names mentioned include Walter Gropius, Hannes Meyer, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe among others. At the bottom of the page, there is a note indicating that only faculty members included in the exhibition are mentioned in the chronology.

On the left-hand side of the image, partially visible, is text "BUCHGESEN", which seems truncated, and "M" might be the initial of a word, but it's unclear without more context. The entire word or phrase may be related to the content or origin of the document or book. The background shows a flat surface below the document and a wall, which is mostly out of focus. The words "Cambridge MASS" are visible and suggest a connection to Massachusetts, perhaps where this document is held or was created. The branding "BUSCH-REISINGER MUSEUM" further identifies the origin or association of the document.
