P.S.--Would you kindly tell me soon where I could get the
pictures here, as we leave New York May 1st, and I then will not
have a chance to profit by your advice?
NEW YORK, March 18th, 1897.
The authentic portraits of historic people are all paintings. Dutton &
Co., on Twenty-third Street, have a very fine collection of photographs of
the famous pictures in foreign galleries, and you would most likely find
what you wanted there.
M. Knoedler & Co., 355 Fifth Avenue, near Thirty-fourth Street, have
photogravures of many of the famous pictures. If you could not suit
yourself at Dutton's you would be almost sure to at Knoedler's.
