| Description | Copy of letter from W. Holman Hunt, Draycott Lodge, Fulham, to J.C. Hook, glad that he has written and hoping to fulfil his commission, he had interpreted the note of Macdonald's death as the end of the collecting, he feels he would be incongruous amongst the successful artists of the day, 'If they like to take any interest in my works they can, and if not they can leave it alone', his own generation has hated him, however, he hopes to be free to sit in a few weeks, 18 May 1887 |
