Object Description
A newspaper article has been collaged onto a manila page alongside other clippings to create a book. The article is written in English and printed in black ink. It includes three black-and-white photographs accompanied by additional text that explains the context of the images. At the top, right-hand side is a landscaped image of two individuals, one standing on the boat and the second individual seen standing near the rocky shore of the peninsula. Underneath the image is text, enclosed in a lined box. The text reads, "The beautiful island of Ithaca, the kingdoms of Odysseus, retains the same charm as in its legendary days." The second image, located near the top of the page, right-hand side, displays a landscape image of animals resting at a river with the mountains in the background. Below the image is text which reads, "An exquisite scene showing Mt. Olympus in the background. The mountains is nearly 10,000 feet high, and was the hiding-place of Greek rebels during their struggle for independence." The third image, located towards the bottom left-hand side of the page, showcases three individuals standing near an assumed well or fountain, as the middle figure is pouring water into the vases on the tile floor. Below the image of the three individuals is a paragraph of text that reads, "The fountain at Corfu, erected by Empress Elizabeth of Austria, is the social center for woman villagers, who meet there to gossip and fill their urns."
