21 May 1959

Dear Doctor Hodin,

The languid nude (reclining with feet up) that you chose is now part of your collection. I shall exhibit the painting first, then after the exhibition it will go to you. Hoping that will be fine with you and that this nude too will be reproduced, as we discussed, and with sincere thanks for all your efforts,

Yours,

EM
