There are now on exhibition at the Fogg Art Museum several notable collections which have been lent to the Museum for a short time.

J. P. Morgan '89 and W. A. White '63 have lent a collection of Persian paintings and European manuscripts. Among the other exhibits are a rare French manuscript Bible of the early 14th century lent by Dr. K. G. T. Webster; some beautiful Persian paintings, lent by H. E. Wetzel '11; Japanese print lent by Dr. D. W. Ross '75; and a large collection of Chinese and Japanese pottery, statuary and paintings, lent, in part, by Mrs. Washington B. Thomas, Miss Margaret Thomas and Dr. Ross. The exhibition contains some highly interesting examples of oriental Art, which are worthy of comparison with occidental masterpieces. These loan collections will remain on view at the Fogg Museum until February 17th.
