The Lampoon “castle” - where Harvard undergraduates produce the oldest continuously published humor magazine on the planet - was designed by Edmund March Wheelwright, an unsung master architect of Boston and cofounder of the Lampoon in 1876. Withstanding over a century of wear, neglect, and low-level vandalism, the building soon will shed its scaffolding and reveal a full-body makeover.
The 1909 Harvard Lampoon building, a droll gem of Flemish lowland architecture, is right here on Bow Street in Cambridge. But you don’t have to go to Holland to get a view of Delft. I n Amsterdam this spring, art lovers are flocking to the Rijksmuseum to see an extraordinary collection of works by the 17th-century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer - more portraits and landscapes than the artist himself ever saw in one place.
