Visitors lingered longest before one of the tiniest works on view, the Winter Landscape by Rembrandt (see cut at full-size). Rembrandt broke with the polished limning of his day to create a graphic shorthand of his own, which amounted to putting space in parenthesis. He prized economy of line as much as the Chinese masters, but where they were flattish and fluent, he was spacious and staccato. Simply by the power of his pen, Rembrandt could make plain paper take on the bright leaden hue of winter sky stretching heavy over snow-muffled acres. As easily it seems...

Perhaps the most graphic picture of the phenomenal development over 80 years can be gained by a comparison of the number of courses offered in the college. In 1873 Harvard listed 92 courses; the 1952-3 catalogue lists over 2,000 courses given in the college alone. A 20 fold increase in 80 years; who knows how many times it will increase in the next 80 years
