| Description | Letter to Alexander Macdonald of Kepplestone from Briton Riviere, Flaxley, 82, Finchley Road, North West London, thanks for the cheque, but asking for it to be corrected as the numbers and writing do not correspond, he is glad that Macdonald has the painting, 'which belongs tot he class of my work that I am at times asked for usque ad nauseam', the title is the one for which it was painted and which will appear on the engraving, which will add to the value of the original, hopes that Macdonald will grow to like the title but if he does not perhaps they will be able to agree on a new one, Pettie's portrait of Boehm is excellent, 20 July 1883 |
