...look upon Harvard with eyes that are both old and new. For, now left largely unattached by social concern and freed for the most part from academic expectation, Harvard seems different to you. It presents itself in a manner that is modest and unassuming, and you, in turn, can gaze upon it with the same unprejudiced eye with which you first viewed everything that first year, except now the sight is not nearly so overwhelming.

In the two outer photographs, the birds gaze out quizzically, as if asking you why you're so troubled by their treatment of the patient figure of the artist...
