Dear Sirs,

Living Painters, Vol. I. DUNCAN GRANT

Many thanks for your letter. With regard to the points raised in it:

(1) Please reckon, as you suggest, 16 pages for preliminary matter and introduction.

(2) I do not like the flimsy variety of interleaf for art [illeg.] books. I think the interleaf should be the same as used for [illeg.] text, and the title of the picture should be printed on the interleaf verso so that title[?] and picture are seen at an open-ing.

(3) I agree that the pictures should be printed on first and third pages.

(4) I also agree that it would be better that Mr Grant should not make his design until he has seen a dummy copy and I will speak to him about the edge on the left. Will you let me have a dummy copy as soon as you can?

Yours faithfully

Will you note that after next Sunday my address will no longer be at Rodmell, but at [illeg.] Hogarth House, Richmond for all corr-espondence.
