This image shows an open page from a newspaper clipping, dated March 7, 1981, from the Middlesex News in Framingham, MA.

The article, titled “Selected by Harvard grad student — First major Picasso exhibition here in 70 years,” written by John J. Mullins of the Associated Press, details a significant art exhibition of Pablo Picasso’s drawings curated by Gary Tintorow, a graduate student in Harvard’s Department of Fine Arts.

Key points from the article include:

• The exhibition features approximately 100 drawings and gouaches spanning Picasso’s career from age 13 until his death in 1973.
• It’s described as the first major U.S. exhibition of Picasso’s drawings in over 70 years, since Alfred Stieglitz’s 1911 show in New York.
• The works were selected from 50 museums and private collections across six countries.
• Tintorow, who is writing his dissertation on Picasso’s 1890s works, emphasizes Picasso’s identity as a draftsman rather than just a painter. He notes Picasso’s prolific drawing output often exceeded his painting, and that drawing was central to his creative process.
• The exhibition was organized to coincide with the centenary of Picasso’s birth and was held at Harvard’s Fogg Art Museum starting April 5, 1981.
• It later traveled to The Art Institute of Chicago and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

The bottom of the article features a black-and-white photograph showing:

• On the right: Gary Tintorow, wearing a suit and tie, standing and smiling slightly.
• On the left: A framed Picasso drawing — a dark, expressive sketch of a rooster or bird with stylized foliage above, displayed in a simple frame.

A caption beneath the photo reads:
“ARRANGES PICASSO SHOW — Harvard graduate student Gary Tintorow stands before one the 100 Picasso art works which will be on exhibit starting April 5 at the Fogg Art Museum on the campus of Harvard University. The show, which was arranged by Tintrow, is considered the first major exhibition of Picasso’s work in the United States in more than 70 years.”

The clipping appears to be preserved in a bound scrapbook or archive, with other newspaper clippings visible along the left edge. The yellowed paper suggests its age, and a library or archival stamp — “MIDDLESEX NEWS FRAMINGHAM, MA. D. $0.300” — is visible at the top.

The overall tone of the article is appreciative and informative, highlighting a rare scholarly opportunity and the depth of Picasso’s lesser-known preparatory and developmental work.

(Note: The caption contains a typo — “Tintrow” instead of “Tintorow.”)
