This image shows a preserved, aged newspaper clipping from The Harvard Crimson, mounted and displayed within what appears to be a scrapbook or archival binder with a burgundy cloth cover and clear plastic corner protectors.
The newspaper is dated Saturday, February 17, 1923, Volume LXXXIII, No. 5, and priced at 15 cents. It was published in Cambridge, Mass.
The central feature is a large, black-and-white photograph of a sculpture titled “SACRIFICE.” The sculpture depicts a dramatic and somber scene: a draped, standing female figure hovers over a prone, lifeless male figure lying on a sarcophagus or bier. A small, kneeling figure (perhaps a child) is visible near the man's head.
According to the caption beneath the photograph, the sculpture was a gift to Harvard University from Mrs. Robert Bacon, created by Miss Malvina Hoffman, and dedicated “in memory of her husband — a University graduate of the class of ’86.” The caption describes the sculpture as representing “the common sacrifice to an ideal,” and notes that the figures and lion are carved from a single block of Carrara stone, weighing 10 tons. It also mentions that the sculpture was to be installed in the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York.
Surrounding the main clipping are other newspaper clippings and articles, dated March 3, 1923, and March 8, 1923, referencing other news such as “FOOT ART MUSEUM” and lectures, suggesting this page is part of a larger collection documenting events or articles of interest around that time.
The overall appearance is that of a historical artifact being carefully preserved for archival or research purposes.
