W. R. JEUDWINE Old Master Drawings By appointment only 16 MANSON PLACE, QUEEN'S GATE, LONDON, S.W.7 KENSINGTON 0419 Germain Seligman Esq. 5 East 57th Street, NEW YORK 22. 4th February 1961 Dear Mr. Seligman, Thank you for your letter of 1st February. I'm afraid there is not a great deal I can add to the description in the catalogue. The drawing seems not to be for any known painting, but it is certainly early and probably pre-Roman. It compares with the drawings and some of paintings published by Sir Anthony Blunt in the Burlington Magazine, July and August 1944. The inscription on the back is interesting and I am reliably informed that some of the Louvre drawings are similarly inscribed, though of course these are for the most part later in date Yours sincerely, WR Jeudwine
