This image captures a single, slightly yellowed page from The Boston Globe, dated Monday, January 22, 1973, opened within what appears to be a scrapbook or binder. The page is from the “THEATER / ARTS” section.
The content is a blend of a major article, a photograph, and a smaller, seemingly unrelated clipping.
Article: “Fogg revival”
Written by Robert Taylor, this piece discusses the “Pre-Raphaelite” art exhibition at the Fogg Museum at Harvard University (then called Fogg Art Museum). It reviews the show "The Depths of the Sea" and explores the historical context and enduring appeal of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, mentioning artists like Sir Edward Burne-Jones, Hunt, and Millais. It also references the museum’s own collection and the artistic revival of the movement at the time.
Photograph & Caption
To the right of the article is a large, grainy black-and-white photograph. The caption beneath it reads:
“JUDITH SCANNELL and Fikret Yegul toast Queen Victoria at the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University, Victorian Evening, opening the exhibition Pre-Raphaelite and Early-French Symbolist Art, in the Fogg Collection which continues through Feb. 11, open to the public without charge.” — Staff Photo by John Garver, Jr.
The photo shows several people in period costume, consistent with a Victorian-themed evening. Two women, identified as Judith Scannell and Fikret Yegul, are prominent in the frame, appearing to be toasting with glasses.
Lower Right Corner: The Slim Gourmet
Taped or adhered to the page in the bottom right corner is a separate, smaller clipping. It appears to be from a different section or even a different publication. This clipping is for a restaurant review or column titled “The Slim Gourmet” by “Ybara Girona in Boston Herald,” dated “Tues 1/23/73.” The specific piece is titled “Vinegar the Mani - T” and is marked “American/College.” This is clearly a distinct item that has been added to the scrapbook page.
The overall impression is that of a personal archive, carefully curated to preserve a piece of cultural history from early 1973 Boston, specifically highlighting an arts event at Harvard and its social context, along with a quirky addition from another publication. The physical state of the paper—creased, slightly brittle, and tanned with age—adds to its archival character.
The image shows two pages from a newspaper, specifically from "The Boston Globe," dated Monday, January 22, 1973. The left page is from the "Theater / Arts" section, featuring an article titled "Fogg revival" by Robert Taylor. The article discusses an exhibition of Pre-Raphaelite art at the Fogg Museum in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It includes a photograph of a painting titled "Aurea Catena" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and the text provides commentary on the art and the exhibition.
The right page contains a photograph of two individuals, Judith Scannell and Fikret Yegül, toasting Queen Victoria at the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University, during a Victorian-themed event. The caption mentions that they are opening an exhibition of Pre-Raphaelite and Early French Symbolist Art, which continues through February. Below the photograph, there is a section titled "The Slim Gourmet," which appears to be an advertisement or article. The text suggests a connection to "Vinegar the Magi-Touch," and there is a note indicating that it is from "The Boston Herald American" dated Tuesday, January 23, 1973.
This image shows an open scrapbook or a collection of clippings from newspapers. There are two main pieces of content visible:
On the left side, there is a clipping from "The Boston Globe," dated Monday, January 22, 1973. The section is labeled "THEATER/ARTS." The article is titled "Fogg revival" and discusses an exhibition of Pre-Raphaelite art at the Fogg Museum. It mentions artists like Sir Edward Burne-Jones and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. There is an image of a painting titled "Aurea Catena" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti at the top of the article.
On the right side, there is another clipping titled "The Slim Gourmet." It includes an image of two people dressed in Victorian-era costumes, standing next to each other. The caption mentions Judith Scannell and Fikret Yegul toasting Queen Victoria at the Fogg Art Museum. The image is credited to Staff Photo by John Landers, Jr.
The clippings are neatly arranged on what appears to be a beige or light brown background, possibly a scrapbook page. There are some handwritten notes on the clippings, possibly for cataloging or personal reference.
An open book with pages that are folded in half is placed on a gray surface. The pages are filled with text and images. On the left side, there is a picture of a woman, and on the right side, there are two people standing. There is a piece of paper with a drawing of two people on the right side. The paper has a caption that reads "The Slim Gourmet."
The image features an open book with two pages displayed. The left page has a headline "Theater/Arts" and an article titled "Fogg revival" with a photograph of a woman. The right page has a drawing of two people, with the text "The Slim Gourmet" and "Vinegar the Martini" written below it. The book's cover is brown, and the pages have a slightly yellowish tint. The background is a plain, light-colored surface.
The image shows an open book or scrapbook page featuring two distinct sections, each with its own content and visual elements.
The page appears to be part of a scrapbook or collection of clippings and illustrations related to the arts, theater, and cultural events. The left section focuses on a specific article about Robert Taylor's work, while the right section highlights an art exhibition and related event at the Fogg Art Museum. The inclusion of both a photograph and an illustration, along with detailed captions and annotations, suggests a curated collection of artistic and cultural commentary. The date (January 22, 1973) and publication source ("The Boston Globe") provide historical context for the content.

This image shows an open scrapbook or a compilation of newspaper clippings, carefully placed on the left and right pages. On the left page, under the heading "THEATER / ARTS" from "The Boston Globe," there are several articles and texts, with a heading "Fogg revival" near the center. The right page features a faded newspaper image accompanied by titles and snippets of text such as "JUDITH SCANNELL" and "The Slim Gourmet." The publication dates seem historical, likely indicating an archival or vintage collection of materials. The scrapbook or collection appears to be well-preserved and an example of someone's effort to document and collect past literary or cultural articles.

The left clipping is from The Boston Globe, dated Monday, January 22, 1973, under the section THEATER / ARTS. It features an article titled "Fogg revival" by Robert Taylor discussing an exhibition at the Fogg Museum in Cambridge, focusing on Pre-Raphaelite painters. There is a black-and-white image of a painting titled "Aurea Catena" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti above the article.
The right clipping includes a black-and-white photo of two people, identified as Judith Scannell and Fikret Yegul, apparently signing or toasting an event at the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University. The caption mentions their Victorian evening on the exhibition Pre-Raphaelite and French Symbolist Art. Below the photo is a partially visible headline from "The Slim Gourmet," likely introducing an article by Barbara Gibbons about vinegar, dated Tuesday, March 13, 1973, from the Boston Herald American.
The two clippings together suggest a focus on art exhibitions and cultural events from the early 1970s.
