This image appears to be a page from a historical document or booklet, likely related to an art exhibition. It includes a printed announcement for an exhibition at the Fogg Art Museum hosted by Harvard University. The exhibition is titled "Loan Exhibition of Drawings and Water Colours by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre," which is lent by the Lowell Institute. The dates for the exhibition are from March 2 to April 6, and it is open to the public.
Below the announcement, there is a more detailed description of the exhibition, reiterating the same information about the artworks, artist, and dates. Additionally, there is a short biographical note about Gabriel-Charles Gleyre, providing background on his life and artistic journey. The text mentions that he was commissioned by John Lowell to create works related to a journey to the Near East in 1834 and includes information about his artistic training and travels.
There is also a handwritten note dated "Feb. 28 1931" and another number "228 31" at the bottom right, possibly indicating a filing or cataloging reference. The paper has a slightly aged appearance, suggesting it is from an older document.
The image appears to be a scanned document, likely from an academic or museum setting, dated February 28, 1931, as indicated by handwritten notes on the left side. The document is composed of two main sections, each discussing an exhibition of art by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre at the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University.
The left section is a formal announcement titled "LOAN EXHIBITION OF DRAWINGS AND WATER COLOURS BY GABRIEL-CHARLES GLEYRE," borrowed from the Lowell Institute and open to the public from March 2 to April 6. This section is slightly off-centered on the page. Below this announcement is a typed description that elaborates on the context of the exhibition: it details how Gleyre was commissioned by John Lowell to create illustrations for a travelogue of their 1834 journey in the Near East, featuring both landscape and figure subjects in contemporary costume.
The right section mirrors the content of the left but seems to be a newspaper clipping titled "FRENCH ART EXHIBIT TO BEGIN MONDAY AT FOGG." It provides additional biographical details about Gleyre, including his birthplace, education, and artistic career. It notes that Gleyre was of French Swiss origin, born in 1806, trained in Lyon and Paris, and was an avid traveler, having spent time in Italy studying the works of Giotto. The clipping also mentions that Gleyre was an exhibitor in the Paris Salon in 1833.
The document has four perforation holes along the left edge, suggesting it was part of a binder or file. The paper has a beige or light brown tint, and the text is printed in black ink. The background of the scan is a neutral gray. The document appears aged, consistent with the 1931 date.
This image shows a single sheet of aged, off-white paper, likely from an archival file or press kit, with three distinct printed notices related to an art exhibition. The paper has three punched holes along its left edge, suggesting it was stored in a binder.
The sheet contains the following three announcements, pasted or printed onto it:
Top-Left Notice (on tan paper):
This is a formal announcement from the Fogg Art Museum — Harvard University. It announces a "Loan Exhibition of Drawings and Water Colours by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre", lent by the Lowell Institute. The exhibition dates are listed as March 2 — April 6, and it is noted to be "Open to the Public".
Right Notice (on white paper):
This is a press clipping or announcement titled "FRENCH ART EXHIBIT TO BEGIN MONDAY AT FOGG". It provides more details, stating the exhibition of Gleyre's drawings will begin Monday and continue until April 1. It confirms the works were loaned by the Lowell Institute and will include about 30 pictures from a larger travelogue group. It explains these were commissioned by John Lowell in 1834 to illustrate his journey through the Near East, comprising landscape and figure subjects of contemporary costume. The text also provides a brief biography of Gleyre, noting his birth in 1806, death in 1874, training in Lyon and Paris, travels to Italy, and his exhibition at the Paris Salon in 1833. A handwritten date, "C. 2 28 31" (likely February 28, 1931), is at the bottom.
Bottom-Left Notice (on white paper):
This is another version of the press release, titled "Exhibition of Water Colors and Drawings by Gleyre". It states the exhibition begins March 24 (note: this date conflicts with the other notices) and will show some thirty or more pictures. It repeats the information about the works being commissioned by John Lowell to illustrate his 1834 trip to the Near East. A faint handwritten date, "Feb 28 1931", is visible above this notice.
Overall Description:
This document serves as a historical record of a 1931 loan exhibition of watercolors and drawings by the French-Swiss artist Gabriel-Charles Gleyre at the Fogg Art Museum. The collection, originally commissioned to document a journey through the Near East in 1834, was lent by the Lowell Institute. The different notices on the page suggest this was a working document, possibly used by a museum or press office, containing slightly varying details (notably the start date of March 2 vs. March 24), with handwritten annotations indicating its date of processing. The paper's age, tone, and the presence of multiple clippings all point to it being an archival item from the early 20th century.
The image shows a page from a magazine or newspaper, featuring two distinct sections of text. The left section is titled "Loan Exhibition of Drawings and Water Colours by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre" and it is lent by the Lowell Institute. The exhibition is held at the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University from March 1 to April 6, and it is open to the public. The right section of the page is titled "French Art Exhibit to Begin Monday at Fogg" and it mentions that an exhibition of Water Colors and Drawings by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre will be held in the Fogg Art Museum from March 23 until April 1. The exhibition is lent by the Lowell Institute through the courtesy of the Lowell Institute trustee, A. Lawrence Lowell. The group comprises landscape and figure subjects which were originally made to illustrate the journey taken by John Lowell in the Near East in 1834. Gleyre was commissioned by Lowell to make a figure of contemporary costume and a landscape view of each country which they visited. The page also includes a brief biography of Gleyre, stating that he was born in Cheville in 1806 and died in Paris in 1874.
The image depicts a piece of paper with two distinct sections. The left section appears to be a flyer or announcement, while the right section contains text that seems to be an excerpt from a newspaper article.
The left section, which is a flyer, is titled "FOGG ART MUSEUM—HARVARD UNIVERSITY" at the top. Below this, it states "LOAN EXHIBITION OF DRAWINGS AND WATER COLOURS BY GABRIEL-CHARLES GLEYRE." It is lent by the LOWELL INSTITUTE and is scheduled from MARCH 3 to APRIL 6, open to the public. There is a date stamp at the bottom left corner, reading "N.U.C. F628 1981."
Below the flyer, there is a continuation of the text, providing more details about the exhibition. It mentions that the exhibition will feature an exhibition of water colors and drawings by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre, lent by the Lowell Institute through the courtesy of the trustee, A. Lawrence Lowell. The group comprises landscape and figure subjects which were originally made to illustrate the journey taken by John Lowell, founder of the Institute, in the Near East in 1834. Lowell commissioned Gleyre to make a figure of contemporary costume and a landscape view of each country which he visited in company with Gleyre. The exhibition will number some thirty or more pictures chosen from the complete group and will be shown until April 1st.
The right section of the paper contains text that appears to be from a newspaper article. It mentions a French art exhibit to begin on Monday at the Fogg. It talks about drawings of Gleyre to be featured in the coming show, pictures loaned by the Lowell Institute. It also includes a brief biography of Gabriel-Charles Gleyre, mentioning his birth in 1806, his early training under an artist named Bonnefond, and his major training in Italy. It notes that Gleyre was represented as an exhibitor in the Paris Salon in the year 1833.
The newspaper article also includes a date stamp at the bottom right corner, reading "G.22831."
Overall, the image is a combination of an exhibition announcement and a newspaper article, both centered around the works of Gabriel-Charles Gleyre.
The image shows a document from the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, detailing an upcoming exhibition of Water Colors and Drawings by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre. The document is structured into two main sections:
This document serves as an announcement for an art exhibition at the Fogg Art Museum, highlighting the works of Gabriel-Charles Gleyre and their historical and artistic significance.
This image displays a collection of paper materials with text, presumably archival documents or notices about art exhibitions. The top portion of the sheet contains two rectangular cut-out notices that are pasted onto a larger piece of paper. There are holes punched on the left side of this larger sheet, indicating it was probably held in a binder or a similar organizing system.
The notice on the left-hand side is titled "FOGG ART MUSEUM — HARVARD UNIVERSITY" and indicates a "LOAN EXHIBITION OF DRAWINGS AND WATER COLOURS BY GABRIEL-CHARLES GLEYRE," which was "LENT BY THE LOWELL INSTITUTE" and took place from "MARCH 3 – APRIL 6," though the year is not indicated. The bottom of this notice states that it is "OPEN TO THE PUBLIC."
The notice on the right is headlined "FRENCH ART EXHIBIT TO BEGIN MONDAY AT FOGG," with a subtitle "Drawings of Gleyre to be Featured in Coming Show—Pictures Loaned by the Lowell Institute." This article provides additional information about the exhibition, mentioning the dates it will be open, the contributor of the artwork (A. Lawrence Lowell), and some background information about the artist Gabriel-Charles Gleyre.
Beneath these two notices, there's another piece of paper with text starting with "Exhibition of Water Colors and Drawings by Gleyre," which seems to elaborate on the information contained in the notices above, detailing the contents and significance of the exhibition.
In the top left corner of the larger sheet, there is a handwritten note that appears to say "N U. Cc F 6-23 '931," possibly a cataloging or reference code for archival purposes.
The image displays a scrapbook page featuring materials related to an art exhibition. On the left side of the page, there is a brown printed card from the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University announcing a Loan Exhibition of Drawings and Water Colours by Gabriel-Charles Gleyre, lent by the Lowell Institute. The exhibition runs from March 3 to April 6 and is open to the public.
Below the card, there is a newspaper clipping dated February 28, 1931 (indicated by handwritten text: "NYCC Feb. 28, 1931"). The clipping gives details about the exhibition, explaining that the watercolors and drawings were commissioned by John Lowell to illustrate his journey to the Near East in 1844. The exhibition includes landscape and figure subjects representing contemporary costumes and views of each country visited on the travels.
On the right side of the page, there is another newspaper clipping titled "French Art Exhibit to Begin Monday at Fogg." This clipping describes the same exhibition and provides additional information about Gleyre’s background, noting his birth in Chevilly, near Paris in 1806, his training in Lyon and Paris under Bonifacio and Delaroche, and his travels in Italy. It mentions that he spent four years there before exhibiting at the Paris Salon in 1834.
