In overall fine condition. Consignor notes that the painting referred to is 'The Virgin,' a full-length nude of Siri Erickson. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope for the letter, filled out in Andrew Wyeth's hand, and an original color snapshot photo of the elder Wyeth wearing the coat he refers to in the letter, as well as a photocopied letter of provenance from a gentleman whose father was a friend of Wyeth's and had the coat ordered from Europe.
