This image displays two vintage newspaper or magazine clippings mounted on the pages of a brown scrapbook.

The top clipping is from the “CRB GUIDE to the entertaining arts”, published by “Greater Boston’s Concert Stations WERB”. It is dated February 1972 and priced at 50¢. The cover features a black-and-white reproduction of a Chinese ink painting titled “THE RESTLESS LANDSCAPE — LATE MING PERIOD”, which is noted to be opening that month at the FOGG ART MUSEUM. The text beneath the image also directs readers to “See Events of Note.”

Beneath it is a clipping from “The Boston Globe,” dated Friday, March 31, 1972. It shows a black-and-white reproduction of a “RARE WOODCUT” by Paul Gauguin, titled “Soyez amoureuses, vous serez heureuses” (French for “Be in love, and you will be happy”). The article notes that this piece was given to the Fogg Art Museum by Judge Charles E. Wyzanski, Jr. The accompanying description explains the design represents “a group of Tahitian figures and heads, combined with ornamental and floral motifs” and could be seen Monday through Friday at the museum.

The scrapbook page itself is a plain, aged brown paper. The clippings appear to be carefully affixed with tape, suggesting a collector’s or researcher’s effort to preserve articles related to museum exhibitions and art events in Boston during the early 1970s.
