This is a vintage newspaper clipping from the Boston Globe, mounted on a piece of aged, tan-colored paper with three visible binder holes along the right edge, suggesting it was saved in a folder or scrapbook.
The clipping contains three distinct articles from late February 1976, all related to Boston’s cultural and social scene.
(By Robert Taylor, Boston Globe, February 22, 1976)
This article reviews a retrospective exhibition of the French artist Jacques Villon at the Fogg Museum (Harvard University). The accompanying photograph is a black-and-white etching titled “Horse,” described as a “drypoint etching by Jacques Villon at the Fogg Museum.”
The piece discusses Villon’s artistic evolution, his role as a key figure in Cubism, and the critical reception of his work, noting his importance in American museums despite being largely unknown to the general public. It highlights the scale of the Fogg’s retrospective — 100 prints, drawings, and paintings — and places it in the context of Villon’s earlier Boston exhibitions.

This brief item announces that Agnes Mongan, former Director of the Fogg Art Museum, has been named the Edith Kreeger Wolf Distinguished Professor for 1975–76 at Northwestern University. It details her career trajectory — beginning at Harvard in 1929 as a research assistant, retiring as Martin A. Ryerson Lecturer on the Fine Arts, and later directing the Fogg Museum.
