“I think the book will be a great help to the average person towards understanding more about sculpture”

TLS, one page, 4.5 x 7, personal letterhead, December 10, 1957. Letter to art historian William Gaunt, who had just published Teach Yourself to Study Sculpture. In full: “Thank you for sending me the little book on sculpture which has just arrived. I have found the bits I have read very interesting, and I am sure I shall enjoy reading the remainder. I think the book will be a great help to the average person towards understanding more about sculpture. It is very nicely produced, and I am glad that you used three photographs of mine in it.” In fine condition, with light scattered wrinkling. RR Auction COA.
