Dear Professor Lawrence:

In reply to your letter of January 11th addressed to Mr. Seligmann, we would be very pleased to lend you the painting by Catena, "Portrait of a Gentleman" for your exhibition to be held during the month of Feburary.

This picture is covered by us against all risk while in your custody and, therefore, it will not be necessary for you to take care of the insurance.

May we ask you to kindly arrange to have the picture called for and returned to our galleries at the close of your exhibition?

Thanking you for your interest,

Please believe us to be

Yours very truly,

JACQUES SELIGMANN & CO., Inc.
