Description
[Translation/transcription]
Hotel Regina, Venice
Dear Master Hodinus,
I'm having pains for the coming baby. What is the beautiful mother up to? Met Dr Goldschmidt (Brussels), promised him a little volume about my work because there's nothing available here, absolutely nothing, despite huge demand and huge success. Pavilion to myself, no state funding, quite an experience. Please also send immediately copy of German original 'Bewusstsein der Gesichte' to Goldschmidt, who wants to start the French translation right away. Thank black eagle. Write soon. Much love and joy.
Yours,
OK
