These three paintings are now being exhibited as part of a circulating exhibition scheduled to return to New York in June, 1941. The Marie Harriman Galleries, 63 East 57th Street, New York, are the exclusive agents for Portinari in the U.S. It would be advisable to correspond with them about these pictures and others that they have on display in New York. Regarding the two items by Miss Fisch, Jungle is owned by Miss Juanita Fagg Newcomb, 470 West 24th Street, New York and is for sale. I do not know the price but assume it to be $50. The “Lake Cuicocha” was lent and returned to the artist in Equador. She may be reached through Miss Newcomb. This picture was price at $50. Yours very truly, Director 2
