Dear Mr. Hauer,
I ask you, if you are able to send me an advance of 100 K [Kronen], or what you can spare, and if you are interested in a figurative picture, a coronation of life, then I expect your visit on Sunday from 2 to 4 or on Monday until 3. I am nearly out of all painting supplies.
Warm greetings your
Egon Schiele

Please excuse the envelope & pencil hand!
