Mr. René Seligmann,
Jacques Seligmann and Company,
3 East 51st Street,
New York City.

My dear Mr. Seligmann:

Thank you for your letter.

The exhibition of Hubert Robert and Fragonard which we are planning to hold in April, has been offered to us by Wildenstein, as we are not in a position--owing to lack of funds--to have another large exhibition this season.

I should be very glad if we might include in the exhibition the two charming Fragonards which you showed to me. If this is agreeable to you, would you mind communicating with Wildenstein?

With kindest regards,
Sincerely yours,
W. R. Valentiner

Der B. dei Conti sieht nach der Retusche sehr schön 
aus. Wir haben aber leider kein Geld mehr für diese Saison!
