September 16th, 1954

Dear Mr. Norris:

My delay in acknowledging your good lines of August 15th has been due to an overlong stay in Europe. I just returned this week.

I am sending you enclosed a photograph of the Francesco Bassano "Portrait of a Priest" now in the collection of the Art Association of Indianapolis, Indian.

I shall write a little note thanking Mr. Parks for his cooperation in this matter.

You will also find annexed a complete description of the painting with data relating to it.

Hoping I will have the pleasure of meeting you sometime,

Yours very sinerely,

Germain Seligman.

Mr. E. Christopher Norris,
The Athenaeum,
Pall Mall,
London S.W. I
England.
