This image displays a collection of newspaper clippings, press releases, and notes assembled on a single sheet of paper, likely for archival or reference purposes. The documents all relate to the Naumburg Rooms and their gift to the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University in December 1930.
The clippings are from several sources and include:
“Crimson” (Harvard University newspaper, Dec. 10, 1930): This is the largest and most prominent article. Headlined “NAUMBURG ROOMS STORED AWAITING DISPOSAL BY FOGG,” it details that the Naumburg Rooms — a gift from Mrs. Aaron Naumburg of New York — have been moved from New York to Cambridge for storage. The rooms, which include 16th-century English paneled rooms and valuable contents like paintings, furniture, and a tapestry, will remain in storage until a permanent display space can be built at the Fogg Museum. The article highlights key artworks, including Rembrandt’s “Portrait of an Old Man” and Frans Hals’ “Portrait of a Preacher of Holland,” as well as a unique 16th-century tapestry of Flemish origin.
“Christian Science Monitor” (Dec. 10, 1930): This clipping, titled “Valuable Old Paintings Included in Naumburg Gift to Fogg Museum,” essentially reiterates the information from the Crimson article, confirming the details about the rooms and their contents, including the Rembrandt and Hals portraits, and the tapestry.
“X-RAY” (Metropolitan Museum Studies, December 1930, V.XXIX, Part I): A small, separate clipping mentioning an article by Alan Burroughs titled “Veronese’s Alterations in His Painting of Mars and Venus,” unrelated to the main subject.
“Art News” (December 27, 1930, V.XXIX, No.13, pp.8): Another small clipping, this one announcing “Dr. Goldschmidt Lectures on Early German Painter-Poets.”
Typed Note (Tuesday, December 16): This note announces a lecture: “‘Old Master Drawings.’ Professor Arthur M. Hind. Large Lecture Hall of the Fogg Art Museum, 5 P.M.”
