I am pleased to hear that the Cazin strikes you favorably. My impression is that, should you not want it, from what our Paris office says, we would have no trouble in selling it.

Berckmans, the purchaser of the large Dana Corot and the large Fuller Rousseau is, I understand a clerk in Tiffanys who married a rich girl, thus enabling him to buy fine works of art. He is evidently a man of taste as he bought the two best pictures in the two collections. He also secured at the Stewart sale, the two pen drawings by Meissonier, as well as the painting "The Stirrup Cup" which cost him $12500.-
"On the River Oise" (Dana) was not dear at $6500.- but it was dark and not very desirable. "The Harvest Field" Rousseau [end page 1 of 2]
