1926. An autograph letter signed (ALS) from German artist Käthe Kollwitz to Gerda Rosenthal, dated March 17, 1926. In ink on one side of a single sheet of paper. The body of the letter, written in German, reads: "If you do not have an acquaintance in the art deputation, it's no use shipping things there. The way it usually worked was this: the deputation was presented with prints with acquisition in mind. But somebody had to be there who would speak in favor of acquisition, who'd give a little talk and advise the deputation to buy the things. Because of the constant combination of monetary support and acquisition of really good things, a new plan was envisioned that from now on only top-quality work would be acquired, or else only monetary support be given. If they actually follow that now I do not know. I don't really think that it makes sense that you turn to them since I am no longer there. Unless you know Balushetz and that he wants to speak for you. Or do you know Kampf or Manzel? Following an exhibit it is always easier to get what you want. Will you be showing at the juried exhibition? Or at the big one? But all of that is so vague. If you feel like it, come by and see me again sometime. All the best..." Very Good minus.

She received 2000; the same amount went to a non-studying female artist. However, you will surely be given money, only I don't know how much it will be. Stahl tool the matter in hand. The money will be sent to me, and I will notify you as soon as I have it. You can then pick it up here. I hope Stahl will do it soon. Please let me know if it would help you to come and have lunch with us, perhaps three times a week. Seeing how expensive the fares are, it might not make much sense for you.

19th c. An untitled oil portrait of a young woman, attributed to American painter and poet Washington Allston. He was the first important American Romantic painter, and was called the "American Titian." Allston's paintings are known for their bold use of light and atmospheric color. His artistic genius was much admired by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Some years after Allston's death, poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: "One man may sweeten a whole time. I never pass through Cambridge Port without thinking of Allston. His memory is the quince in the drawer and perfumes the atmosphere." Allston's paintings have been widely exhibited in museums, most notably at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Unsigned and undated, marked "W. Allston" on verso. In wooden frame. Very Good minus. Minor wear to edges of board; evidence of possible previous restoration, particularly to two small areas of the figure's neck and chest. Frame is fragile with some chipping to gilt components. Note that the portrait was originally in an oval frame, as was popular in the 18th century. However, oval frames fell out of fashion in the 19th century, and many paintings were relined to fit a rectangular frame. As a result, the original oval shape is faintly visible.
