Archives Scrapbooks

This image shows a page from a scrapbook, likely assembled in September 1946, containing two newspaper clippings from The Home Forum section of the Christian Science Monitor.

The clippings are mounted on aged, yellowed paper and show signs of wear. Two rectangular “BOSTON NEWS CLIP” labels are affixed to the top of the page, indicating they were professionally cut and preserved, with one dated “SEP 5, 1946” and the other “SEP 9–1946,” both from “120 Tremont Street, Boston 8, Mass.” Both clippings are also stamped with “129F” in blue ink.

Left Clipping (September 5, 1946):

• Headline: “Several Art Exhibitions for Convention Visitors”
• Contains a single black-and-white photograph of an outdoor scene with trees, possibly a landscape painting or a view from an exhibition.
• The visible text mentions “INSPIRATION POINT” and references the “third annual” exhibition by the Hudson galleries, suggesting the photo illustrates an art gallery or exhibit.

Right Clipping (September 5, 1946, as indicated by the “ON POST, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5” line at the top):

• Headline: “The Home Forum,” registered in the U.S. Patent Office.
• Features the artwork: “A Lady With a Greyhound” — identified as a watercolor by John Everett Millais (1829–1898), a prominent Pre-Raphaelite painter.
• The illustration shows a woman in a bonnet and shawl, standing beside a greyhound, rendered in a sketchy, detailed watercolor style.
• A caption reads: “By Courtesy of the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University, in The Christian Science Monitor.”
• Beneath the image, an article by “Dorothy Anslow” provides historical context on Millais, mentioning his Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood membership, his role as an illustrator, and his famous works like “Christ in the Carpenter’s Shop.” It notes the small watercolor was published in “Once a Week” and “Cornhill” in 1859.
• The article also includes a quote from Millais: “We must not forget that only by insistence upon their individuality of conception and expression can they hope to advance to first rank… Drawing and painting have their grammar, which can be taught and acquired, like the grammar of speech and music, but beyond that there is very little to be done for a painter—everything by him.”
• The article ends with a rhetorical question: “How many artists have shared Millais’ conviction!”

The scrapbook page appears to be part of a collection focused on art and culture, preserving contemporary newspaper commentary on exhibitions and historical artworks — notably, this page juxtaposes a current art event with a review of a 19th-century masterpiece. The overall tone is educational and reflective, typical of mid-20th-century cultural journalism.

(Note: The word “CONQUER” is visible upside down and reversed in the lower-left corner of the left clipping, suggesting it is part of a larger article that was cut or oriented differently originally.)

This image depicts a scrapbook page featuring newspaper clippings. It includes two distinct articles:

1. The first article, titled "Several Art Exhibitions for Convention Visitors," includes a photograph showing a scenic image, likely of a natural landscape with rugged terrain, hills, and sheep in the background. The text below discusses art exhibitions and appears to describe a location or inspiration for an art piece.

2. The second article features a discussion of a painting entitled "A Lady With a Greyhound: A Water Color by John Everett Millais." A black-and-white print of the watercolor is displayed, showing a woman dressed in flowing garments seated in reverence with a greyhound lying nearby. Text accompanying the illustration provides a description of Millais's work, his style, and the historical significance of his pieces.

At the top of the scrapbook page are two clippings with printed stamps reading "Boston News Clip," identifying two sources: the Boston Post (dated September 5, 1946) and the Christian Science Monitor (dated September 9, 1946). The page is marked with handwritten notes and numbers. This appears to be an archival collection of news and art reviews.

The image shows a scanned page from an old newspaper or magazine. Specifically, it is from "The Boston News Clip" dated September 5, 1946 and September 9, 1946. The visible portion of the page contains two articles, one headlined "Several Art Exhibitions for Convention Visitors" and the other with an illustration captioned "A LADY WITH A GREYHOUND: A Water Color by John Everett Millais."

The first article's headline is printed in a bold, serif font, and beneath it, the column continues with smaller text that is not fully legible in the image. The image associated with the second article depicts an artwork of a lady dressed in 19th-century attire with a greyhound by her side. The text beneath the illustration discusses the artist John Everett Millais (1829–1896), describing him as a British artist known for his role as a pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood painter and the personal art style with modest detail and accurate color, illustrated by watercolors like the one shown.

Physical signs of wear and age are evident in the condition of the paper, such as browning, slightly faded ink, creases, and torn edges. There are also small pieces of paper attached to the top of the page, likely indicating where this clipping was stored or cataloged, possibly inside a larger folder or file.
