Fogg Art Museum Shows Growth

The exceptional growth of the Fogg Art Museum during the past five years both in the number and the quality of its works of art is the subject of an article by P. J. Sachs '00, Assistant Director, in a current issue of the Graduates' Magazine. Of the many paintings which have been added during this time perhaps the most notable are these: a highly important "Annunciation" by the 14th century Siennese painter, Andrea Vanni; three parts of an altar-piece by Spinello Aretino; a superb little picture of "Christ in Limbo" in an almost perfect state of preservation painted by the 15th century artist, Stefano di Giovanni; and, lastly, a very fine portrait of Nicolas Triest, Baron d'Auweghem, painted by Van Dyck in his early manner.
