Title
Letter from Jacques Lipchitz to Pierre Dubaut
Date
[1937–8]
Description
Letter sent by Jacques Lipchitz regarding his work. He says that he was in Cap Ferret, France and is now back at work. He writes about his 'big sculpture' [most likely, 'Prometheus killing vulture'] is leaving its first location and will be displayed in one of the squares in the Petit Palais and says that it is becoming more defined and that he probably has another three weeks of work on it. He hopes to find the time to see the Bale exhibition.
