Postcard from Egon Schiele to Anton Peschka
23rd Dec. 1917
(Tulln 1890–1918 Vienna)
(Vienna 1885–1940 Vienna)
Translation of the Transcription:
Dear A. P., I’ll expect your visit full of confidence on Wednesday, before 3 o’clock, if possible, because I want to tell you about the result I have achieved with the Secession
and I once again want to encourage you to paint now, as long as you are still in Vienna, so you can participate in our exhibition, which will be the most important exhibition of new art in Vienna, and so you can build a foundation for your future. I also want to talk to you about the future as far as it concerns me. Maybe Willy could wait until 5 or 6 o’clock after all to come to Café Eichberger.
Kindest regards to yourself, Gerti and Tonerl,
EGON.
