The overall presentation suggests this is an archival clipping preserved as a record of the 1975 exhibition of the Grenville L. Winthrop Collection at Harvard’s Fogg Museum, featuring notable Shang dynasty jade artifacts.
The image appears to be a scanned or photographed page from a publication, possibly a newspaper or magazine, given the text and the style of the images. The page is affixed to a brown folder or backing, and the date "January 17, 1975" is written in red ink at the bottom of the page.
There are two main images on the page, both related to ancient artifacts:
On the left side, there is a photograph of a statue, labeled as the "Figure of Kneeling Man," which is described as being made of bone-colored calcified jade and attributed to the Shang Period (approximately 1550-1050 B.C.). It is noted to be part of a collection of 630 specimens from the Fogg Museum's "Ancient Chinese Jades from the Grenville L. Winthrop Collection," which was on display from January 22 to March 18.
On the right side, there is a photograph of a spearhead embedded in a bronze socket, labeled as the "Jade Spearhead in Bronze Socket" with socket inlayed with turquoise particles. It is also attributed to the Shang Period and is part of the same exhibition at the Fogg Museum.
The images and the text suggest that this page is likely from a cultural or news article about an archaeological exhibition featuring ancient Chinese jade artifacts.
This image shows a page clipped from a publication, likely from the Harvard Gazette dated January 17, 1975. The page features two photographs of ancient Chinese artifacts from the Shang Period, dated around 1550-1050 B.C.
On the left side is a photograph of a "Figure of Kneeling Man," made of bone-colored calcified jade. The figure is depicted from the shoulders up and appears to be wearing a simple garment with horizontal lines across the chest. The text below the image provides information about the artifact, noting its probable Shang Period origin and its inclusion in the Fogg Museum’s "Ancient Chinese Jades from the Grenville L. Winthrop Collection," which was on display from January 22 to March 18.
On the right side is a photograph of a "Jade Spearhead in Bronze Socket," also from the Shang Period. The spearhead is decorated with intricate patterns and features a turquoise inlay in the bronze socket. The text below this image provides similar details about the artifact and its display at the Fogg Museum.
The page is mounted on a brown folder or folder insert, indicating it might be part of a collection or archive. There are two holes punched on the right side of the folder, suggesting it was meant to be placed in a binder.
The image depicts a piece of paper with a photograph of a statue on the left and another photograph of a spear on the right. The paper is folded into a book, and the edges of the book are visible. There are two holes on the right side of the book. The paper is brown, and the photographs are black and white. The paper has some text written on it, and the date is written in red.
The image shows a page from a newspaper or magazine with a collage of two pictures and some text. The collage includes a black-and-white photo of a kneeling man statue from the Shang Dynasty, dated around 1550-1050 BCE, and a photo of a bronze socket inlaid with turquoise particles from the same period. The text on the page reads "Harvard Gazette January 17, 1975" and mentions that the kneeling man statue may be found among the 630 specimens from the Fogg Museum's "Ancient Chinese Jades from the Granville L. Winthrop Collection." The photo of the bronze socket is described as being inlaid with turquoise particles and dated between 1550-1050 BCE. The image appears to be a clipping from a publication that highlights the ancient Chinese jades exhibition at the Fogg Museum.
The image depicts a page from a publication titled "Harvard Gazette," dated January 17, 1955. The page features two photographs of ancient artifacts, accompanied by descriptive text.
This page serves as a historical record, showcasing and describing significant archaeological artifacts from ancient China, likely intended for an academic or museum audience.
The image shows a page with two newspaper clippings mounted on a brown paper backing. The clippings feature photographs of two distinct artifacts.
On the left side, there's a black and white photo of a rounded sculpture that appears to depict a seated figure with visible facial features, arms, and a patterned chest decoration. Below the image, there is a caption that provides some details about the artifact, identifying it as a figure of "Kneeling Man, terra-cotta colored jadeite; probably Shang Period, ca. 1550-1050 B.C." It also mentions the piece being part of an exhibition.
On the right side is another black and white photo of a slender and elongated object with a pointed end and a beautifully patterned handle. The caption below identifies it as "Jade Spearhead of Bronze Socket with basket braid; with inscription particular [the rest is obscured], Shang Period, ca. 1550-1050 B.C." It also notes that it is part of an exhibition called "Jade from the Greeville L. Winthrop Collection."
At the bottom of the page, handwritten in ink, is "Harvard Gazette, January 17, 1995." This indicates the source and date of the publication from which the clippings were taken. The overall condition of the page looks aged and slightly worn, suggesting this is an older artifact of documentation.
The image consists of a page layout that includes two separate black-and-white photographs of ancient artifacts.
Left Side: A photograph of a kneeling human figure carved from jade, described as a "Figure of Kneeling Man." The figure appears rounded and stylized, with arms crossed over its chest. The caption beneath it identifies it as an artifact from the Shang Period, approximately 1550–1050 BCE. It's noted as an item in the "Greenville L. Winthrop Collection."
Right Side: A photograph of a jade spearhead with intricate carvings, described as "Jade Spearhead in Bronze Socket" in the caption. The carving on the socket includes detailed patterns. This spearhead is listed from the Shang Period as well, circa 1550–1050 BCE, and belongs to the same collection as the kneeling figure.
Beneath the images, handwritten text reads "Harvard Gazette" with the date "January 17, 1975." The page is mounted on a tan sheet of paper with a visible hole punched on the side, suggesting it may have been part of a collection or archive.
The image shows a scrapbook page with two black-and-white photographs of ancient artifacts, both presumably from the Shang Period (ca. 1550-1050 B.C.).
On the left side is a photo of a "Figure of Kneeling Man," a sculpture made from bone-colored calcified jade. The figure is depicted in a kneeling pose, with its arms crossed over its chest. The facial features are stylized and somewhat abstract.
On the right side is a photo of a "Jade Spearhead in Bronze Socket," with the socket inlaid with turquoise particles. The spearhead has a detailed patterned design on the socket, while the blade part is plain and elongated.
Underneath the images, there are captions describing the items and providing contextual information. Handwritten in red ink, below the left image, is the text:
"HARVARD GAZETTE
JANUARY 17, 1985."
The page itself is brown with two holes punched on the right side, suggesting it was part of a larger binder or collection.
