Fogg Museum Acquisitions

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

As a result of recent purchases the Fogg Museum has now on exhibition three new valuable works of art. These are, the Jacobsen collection, consisting of one hundred and four photographs of ancient sculpture in the Museum of Copenhagen: a set of engravings for the Gray Collection, comprising eight etchings of Turner's "Liber Studiorum," which the Museum has been fortunate in obtaining, as none have been on sale since 1891; and a collection of two hundred and thirty photographs obtained from the administration of the Berlin Galleries. Among these pictures of notable ancient sculpture is that of one style of the Meleager statue now in Berlin. By means of the picture of this famous statue an interesting comparison may be made with the type of Meleager which the Fogg Museum itself possesses.
