^[[Dr. Suida]] November 1, 1954 Dear Dr. Suida: As I promised you I am sending you herewith the bible reference to the three men seated on the top left of the Luca Giordano painting: Exodus 17:9 to 13. In other words, it represents Moses with Aaron and Hur. In the "Pontormo to Greco" exhibition, Indianapolis, February-March, 1954, a painting by Federico Zuccaro also represents the same scene which is evidently the battle of the Israelites against the Amalecites; and also I believe I told you I too have a drawing representing the same scene. May I take advantage of these lines to tell you anew how much Mrs. Seligman and I enjoyed calling on you all last Saturday. With best personal regards, Sincerely yours, Germain Seligman Dr. William E. Suida 111-40 Seventy-sixth Drive Forest Hills, Long Island New York
