✓ November 22, 1950 Dear Mrs. Gomes: The painting by Cezanne has at last reached me and I wish to tell you without delay how very pleased I am to have it. I expected also to hear from you in answer to my letter of October 30th and you will allow me to express my disappointment. I was hoping particularly in view of the conversations we had in Paris, that you would have been interested in a closer cooperation with me and would have had the desire of sending me further details. After my several visits to you this summer I was much impressed with your business abilities and particularly by your driving activity, a quality which is missing with so many Paris art dealers and I was thus looking forward to further constructive cooperation. I feel it would be unfortunate if our first deal would affect our business relationship from the very beginning. Your very sincerely, (Germain Seligman) Madame Henriette Gomes 8 rue du Cirque Paris France
