Description
Original letter has been cut in half, and original content is difficult to decipher. Orpen makes reference to the 'School' [Metropolitan School of Art, Dublin?] being 'fuller this time.' Whyte's purchase notes name the bespectacled man as 'Rothenstein' [Orpen's in-law]
Creator
Orpen, Sir William, 1878-1931
