The article, attributed to Edgar J. Breslouf, Jr., describes a significant and controversial exhibition of modern art at the Fogg Museum. It details the reactions of critics, particularly Boston critic J. F. Luce, who was notably negative, calling the show “a mass of paintings, sculptures and drawings from the so-called modern school” that “cannot be called art.” The author of the article defends the exhibition, arguing that it includes “some of the most important works of modern art” and that the Fogg Museum was taking a brave step by introducing such challenging material to the public.

Key details from the text include:

• The exhibition contained works from Picasso, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Matisse.
• It was organized by the museum's director, Paul J. Sachs, and was the first major display of modern art from the Fogg’s own collection.
• The article mentions specific works like Picasso’s “Woman in Yellow,” Cézanne’s “The Large Bathers,” and Matisse’s “Woman with a Hat.”
• It critiques the conservative local art establishment and argues for the educational value of seeing original modern masterpieces.

The clipping is preserved between two thin, beige paper sheets — possibly protective interleaves — that cover the article partially on the right and bottom.
