THE MINNEAPOLIS INSTITUTE OF ARTS
MINNEAPOLIS 4, MINNESOTA

Russell A. Plimpton, Director

October 27,1952

Dear Germain:

Many thanks for your note of October 24 regarding the frame, which we shall treat at the Institute just as you requested. As a matter of fact, you and I agree pretty much on these matters, so you may depend upon my attending to it correctly.

I enjoyed seeing you very much, and was tremendously impressed by your Gericault. In fact, I am writing to ask you to let me know as soon as the museum which is interested in the painting has given you a decision, one way or the other.

Sincerely,

Dick
Richard S. Davis
