^[[checkmark]] D. RE*TP October 17th., 1925. Mrs. J. Willis Dalzell, 6933 Thomas Blvd., Pittsburgh, Penna. Dear Madame: It was my privilege to see, last Spring at the Founders Day reception in Pittsburgh, the very fine group of pictures you lent to the Museum on that occasion. I have just arrived form Europe, and amongst other very important pictures, I have brought over one of the most famous works by Reynolds, and two ver fine portraits by Greuze. Should you think that one of these pictures would be of interest to you, I would gladly send you a photograph and particulars of it. In any case, should you come to New York, I hope that I will have the privilege of your visit and the pleasure of showing you our collection, which includes a very fine selection of tapestries, Eighteenth Century French furniture and works of art of the Italian Renaissance, and from the French Gothic and Eighteenth Century periods. Kindly believe me, Yours very sincerely,
