Description
Lipchitz expresses hope that [his statue] 'Figure' has arrived on time and in a good state. He indicates the necessity to exhibit this statue on a high socle and platform. He thanks Barr for sending the catalogue of the 'Art fantastique' exhibition. His two painting have not arrived yet, and he is looking forward to seeing them again. There is another draft letter on the same piece of paper, addressed to 'Dear little Guaieta [Margarita Larrea?]', in which Lipchitz writes that his exhibition at the Petit Palais will be open in two days.
