Dear Mrs. Seligmann,

thank you for your letter and cheque. I am sorry that my answer regarding lot 641 Pannini is rather late. However it was quite difficult to make a photo of the watercolour. The one I include is rather small but as I believe quite accurate. Naturally the colours are not so faint as on the photo. Especially the various greens tend to be more blue as they really are. The size of the watercolour is 19 x 28,5 cm. In the upper and lower margin are two small tears (5 mm size of the margin 6mm) carefully repaired. I hope that the photo and my comment will give you more clues to your possible decisions.

Sincerely yours
