  • The Postcard Age At The Museum Of Fine Arts, Boston
    February 5, 2013

    Memory and desire, pleasure and persuasion are all rolled up into one in ⁔he Postcard Age: Selection from the Leonard A. Lauder Collection†on view at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA). The exhibition comprises 700 postcards drawn from the promised gift of 100,000 examples to the museum by cosmetics giant Leonard A. Lauder. The exhibition, on view through April 14, is the first to be drawn from Lauder⁳ promised gift and it spans the years from the last decade of the Nineteenth Century until 1939. What is particularly compelling is that every postcard on view holds its own: as a stunning work of art, a sizzling graphic, an historic document or technological innovation. Artists, prominent and obscure, created images for the form in a range of styles. Each merits careful scrutiny.
