The image depicts an open page from a book or document, which appears to be discussing an art exhibition and related events. The text on the page provides details about the exhibition and its significance, particularly focusing on 19th-century art.

Key points from the text include:

  1. Artistic Expression in the 19th Century:

    • The text highlights individual artistic expressions from the second half of the 19th century, mentioning specific artists such as Vilhelms Leibl, Max Liebermann, Arnold Böcklin, and Hans Thoma.
    • It describes the characteristics of their works, noting the juxtaposition of realism with bucolic subjects and the range from intimate to heroic landscapes and portraits.
  2. Role of Drawing:

    • The exhibition emphasizes the importance of drawing in the work of 19th-century artists. It suggests that sketches and studies often convey the artist's intentions more immediately than the more elaborate paintings of the period.
  3. Preservation of Artworks:

    • Due to the sensitivity of drawings and watercolors to sunlight, the exhibition has taken care to screen out daylight in the galleries of the Busch-Reisinger Museum. This is to prevent exposure to ultraviolet rays that could cause yellowing of the paper and fading of colors.
  4. Related Events:

    • There are gallery talks scheduled at the Busch-Reisinger Museum on October 7, 14, 15, 28, and November 11 and 18, with lectures by Prof. Otto von Simson from Harvard University and Prof. Gert Schiff from the New York University Institute of Fine Arts.
    • Additional lectures related to the exhibition will be held on October 5 and November 9 at 5 p.m. in the Fogg Art Museum, open to the public without charge.
    • The Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures will sponsor a full-day symposium on the interrelationship of the arts in 19th-century Germany, concluding with a concert on November 4 at the Busch-Reisinger Museum (by reservation only).

The page number at the bottom is "-30-", indicating it is part of a larger document or book.

individual expression during the second half of the century, especially when juxtaposed with the realism of Wilhelm Leibl or the firm characterizations of Max Liebermann. Arnold Bocklin is represented by two unusually bucolic subjects, while Hans Thoma's work spans intimate as well as heroic landscape studies, in addition to portraits.

The exhibition reveals the important role of drawing in the oeuvre of the nineteenth-century artist. The brief sketches and finished studies retain more of the immediacy of the artist's intentions than do the often overelaborate paintings of the period.

Because of their sensitivity to sunlight, the drawings and watercolors are being given the utmost care: daylight has practically been screened out in the galleries of the Busch-Reisinger Museum so as not to expose the works of art to the ultra-violet rays that would cause yellowing of the paper and fading of the delicate colors.

In connection with the exhibition there will be gallery talks at the Busch-Reisinger Museum at 3 p.m. on October 7, 14 (in German), 15, 28, November 11 and 18 (in German). Prof. Otto von Simson, Harvard University, and Prof. Gert Schiff, New York University Institute of Fine Arts, will give lectures on topics related to the exhibition on October 5 and November 9, at 5 p.m. in the Fogg Art Museum. All events are open to the public without charge. In addition, the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures will sponsor a full day's symposium on the interrelationship of the arts in nineteenth-century Germany concluding with a concert, on November 4 at the Busch-Reisinger Museum (by reservation only).
