December 21st, 1934.

Prof. Sanchez y Canton,

Dear Sir:

The great many friends you have in this country, who are also acquaintances of mine - such as Mr. Walter Cook and Mr. Frankfurter, have encouraged me to write to you and send you these two photographs.

We would be very pleased if you would be kind enough to let us have your opinion of these paintings. May I add that they do not belong to us and also that their owner, as well as some of the art critics here, consider them as works by Goya. Your opinion on the subject, considering your great competence, would be of extreme interest to us.

With anticipated thanks for your answer, kindly believe us

Yours sincerely,
(René Seligmann)
