Translation of the Transcription:

18th April 1918.

Dear Mr. Schiele!

We regret to inform you that we have given up our exhibition venue as of last month, since transport conditions became too difficult. Once the war is over we will continue to hold exhibitions of the latest art and will then reconsider your suggestion. If you could send us a catalogue from one of your most recent exhibitions it would help us
remember and get an overall impression.

Respectfully,
Dr. W. Schürmeyer"
