Description

[Translation/transcription]

1 Albert Studios
4 Albert Street
London NW1

10 April 1960

Dear Pepi,

Many thanks for the revisions! I’ve transcribed them neatly and sent them off by express. Originally I wanted to say (on mysticism) ‘…the strongly emotionally coloured sensation’ and not, of course not, emotionally coloured sensation. In any case, I naturally went with your version.

I assume the NVC gallery had the invitation sent out to you. I’m sending a few copies with this letter. The preparations are more or less finished; now I just need to buy glass and hang things up. With great effort I was able to get one side of the corridor for around fourteen drawings.

All best,

Erich
