The image appears to be a photograph of an informational page or document, likely from a museum or exhibition catalog. The page is divided into two sections.
The upper section contains a typed announcement titled "Italian Art Display at the Fogg." This section details an exhibition of "Prints and Drawings in Italy: Late Sixteenth and Early Seventeenth Centuries," scheduled to run from January 16 to January 26 at the Fogg Art Museum. It mentions specific artists such as Federico Barocci, Annibale Carracci, and their followers.
The lower section features a black-and-white photograph of an artifact, specifically a "Dragon with Bird's Head" made of opaque cream-colored and whitish jade. This piece is described as one of 630 items from the "Ancient Chinese Jades from the Grenville L. Winthrop Collection," which was on display at the Fogg Museum from January 22 to March 18. The document notes that the entire collection has not been exhibited since it was bequeathed to the museum in 1943. The exhibit also marks the publication of a definitive catalogue of the collection by Curator Emeritus Max Loehr, with assistance from Louisa G. Fitzgerald Huber.
Both sections of the page are affixed onto a larger, slightly weathered piece of paper or board. The text and the photograph are well-organized and appear to provide information about the historical and cultural significance of the displayed artifacts.
This image is a page from a scrapbook or collection of museum-related materials. The page contains two main elements:
Text Block: At the top, there is a small printed text block titled "ITALIAN ART DISPLAY AT THE FOGG." It announces a special exhibition of "Prints and Drawings in Italy: Late Sixteenth and Early Seventeenth Centuries" at the Fogg Art Museum, running through January 26. The text mentions artists such as Federico Barocci, Agostino and Annibale Carracci, Guido Reni, and Domenichino. It also notes that the show was organized by three Harvard graduate students in fine arts under the direction of Professor Henri Zerner, the Curator of Prints at the museum.
Photograph and Caption: Below the text block, there is a black-and-white photograph of a jade artifact titled "Dragon with Bird's Head." The caption explains that this piece is from the Grenville L. Winthrop Collection and is one of 630 pieces of Ancient Chinese Jades on view at the Fogg Museum from January 22 through March 18. The collection, renowned as "the finest single assemblage of archaic jades in the world," has not been shown in its entirety since it was bequeathed to the museum in 1943. The pieces date from the Neolithic Period through the Han Dynasty and include various objects such as ritual disks, replicas of Bronze-Age tools and weapons, and elaborate buckles, belt hooks, and pendants. The exhibition also marks the publication of the definitive catalogue of the collection by Curator Emeritus Max Loehr, assisted by Louisa G. Fitzgerald Huber. The caption notes that gallery talks will be conducted every Sunday at 3 p.m. by members of the Fogg's Oriental Art Department.
