Dear Mr Frick.
I have come across an advertisement of a book which might interest you It is Pietro Aretino's Quattro Libri de la Humanita di Christo and has on the title page an engraving by Francesco Marcolini
[end of page 1]
[beginning of page 2]
which is quite clearly taken from yr. portrait by Titian. It is dated 1545 and is therefore of some interest as giving the approximate date of the original. The price is 160 marks.
Shall I order it for you?
Yrs. sincerely
Roger E. Fry
