FOGG MUSEUM TO LOAN PICTURES TO STUDENTS

Unique Cultural Experiment Started at Harvard—Decorations May Be Kept in Rooms for Three Months

Feb. 25, 1930

FEW CONDITIONS ARE IMPOSED ON STUDENT BORROWERS

A unique and interesting experiment in the way of cultural education will be inaugurated today in a plan for loaning pictures from the Fogg Museum to students of the University who may use them in decorating their rooms for a period of approximately three months free of any charge.

The idea is probably without precedent among all the diverse methods for bringing art to the people, and the predictive interest in the fine arts. According to the directors of the museum, the continued display of pictures of real artistic merit in the rooms of undergraduates may go far toward arousing such an interest. Since it is an innovation that is bound to be watched with interest, the success or failure, as well as any desired growth in the future, depends upon the cooperation and support of the students.

Twenty-seven drawings and engravings comprise the group which is open for selection today. This collection is made up of the original and extremely pictorial works by the contemporary American artist, Herman A. Webster. After being graduated from Yale in 1900, he studied engraving in Paris. He has since achieved a national reputation for his work. The group of his works which will be on exhibition includes a series of views of Windsor Castle and its surroundings, which are of particular interest because of the artist's skill in reproducing the spirit of the place. The drawings are of German portrait painters, these drawings were made in the time of Henry VIII and are studies for his oil masterpieces. The prints are framed and matted, and the students who borrow them will be expected to hang them in their rooms and take proper care of them. The only obligation of the borrowers is to return the prints to the museum at the end of the three months. The pictures may be procured from the Fogg Museum by any student, who will be given a receipt for the same. The exhibition will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The following students have been appointed as a committee to take charge of the matter: John J. Walker, Jr., '30, and T. C. Howe, Jr., '30.
