...sequel to the successful Degas show, an exhibition of reproductions of Old Master drawings is now on view in the Print Room of the Fogg Museum. The reproductions are from the New York dealer, E.

The mention of Old Master drawings usually calls to mind many academic heads, many chubby putti, many nudes in red chalk, all manifesting the years of devoted study passed in repeating the forms of the schools for the purpose of creating pretentious paintings which can be classified as being...

At the head of a column in his admittedly vulgar N. Y. Mirror, Publisher Hearst was pleased to print young Mr. Vanderbilt's name and portrait. Young Mr. Vanderbilt's column, headed Now, was modeled after the Brisbanal TODAY in other Hearst sheets.
