Description
Greetings letter sent by Jacques Lipchitz, he writes that it's a new chapter for him, moving from his studio and that after a difficult year he is looking forward to a new one, which he hopes will be fruitful. He writes that even if his body is tired his mind feels young. He also writes about a boy named 'Ach' [probably, a student of Lipchitz], saying that even after he spent a lot of money on him and his clothes, but 'he's a bad kid, no one seems to like him, and they are all suspicious of him'.
