CHESTER DALE THE PLAZA, NEW YORK May 22, 1947. Mr. Germain Seligmann, 5 East 57th Street, New York City. Dear Mr. Seligmann: In reply to your letter I wish to advise you that the two Braques to which you refer form part of a large group, from my collection, of 20th century French pictures which occupy three larger galleries at the Art Institute of Chicago, and are there on, at least, an indefinite loan. I never expect to bring them back, so consequently none of them are for sale. Sincerely yours, Chester Dale
