Transcription:

18th July 1913.

Dear Mr. Reininghaus!
I would be delighted to hear that you are well again. Presently, I have no news. – I sent a telegram to you from Villach but had no reply, although I asked you for one. When will you be in Vienna? – And when will we paint the “Conversion”? I ask you to inform me when you wish to paint with me, and whether you have received my messages.
Yours, affectionately,
Egon Schiele

Presently Altmünster am Traunsee,
Arthur Rößler, Haus Gaigg.
