July 27th, 1944 Dear Miss Crane: I hope you will understand that my delay in answering your letter of the 18th., was unavoidable, as it is only this morning that I have returned to New York. To facilitate matters for you, I am following the form used in your inquiry about the RENOIR painting "Portrait of Edmund Renoir" - - Artist: Renoir Title: Portrait of Edmond Renoir Date: 1887 Medium: Oil Size: 21-1/8"x 25-1/2" Credit line: Jacques Seligmann & Co., Inc. It is not, as you will gather, the painting in the collection of Mr. Billy Rose. Yours very sincerely, Miss Aimee Crane, The Hyperion Press, 30 Fifth Avenue, New York 11, N.Y. (Germain Seligman)
