Transcription:

Dear Karl Reininghaus! If you
should come to Munich,
go to the Secession, I have
two pictures on display. – I have
had an experience with Dr. [Oskar] Reichel
that seemed very petty to me,
I can’t help myself, I have
written a few rather explicit lines
to him because of it etc.
I will tell you next time. Come see me!

Kind regards!
Egon Schiele.
