Description
Letter to Kitson from Grahame Cotman
Date: 1932
Transcription
marked in both the portraits I have is present & the vermillion on the paint brush is typical.
I have no knowledge whatever of such a painting & in writing you, thinking you would be interested & with your knowledge of the subject might have some information. The name “Bostock” is also unknown to me in connection with the family.
At a guess it measures say 2 feet x 1’8”[.]
The frame is an old pattern, I fancy of London make, & the picture has been relined at some time.
With kind regards
Yours faithfully
Grahame Cotman.
