Letter from Irene Beran to Egon Schiele, 6th Mar. 1918

Transcription:

6th March

Dear Sir!
Thank you very much
for sending
the Klimt article.
It is a great coincidence
that I, who personally also
knew the artist so well,
only a few weeks ago

wrote a very similar
article in the Brünner Zeitung
about my personal
impressions.
A certain Mr. [Gustav] Nebehay
who, I’m sure, sells
only drawings
by K. [Gustav Klimt] and no
oil paintings, is not

whom I would like to
consult in this matter,
since I negotiate
with dealers only in
the most urgent cases. I would
be interested in particular
in the figural painting
by K. that is privately
owned by the M. family,
because you

have described it to me as so
disturbingly accomplished.
If you could ask them for me,
I would consider it a great
personal favor.
My best regards,
Irene Beran.
