Description | 'Dear Sir, I have your letter of July 19, offering for sale an original picture by Salvatore Rosa. As the Royal Society has no gallery of pictures other than portraits of Fellows, it seems probable that your letter was intended for the Royal Academy, Burlington House, and I have sent it on to them so that they may deal with it. I am, faithfully yours, Robt [Robert] Harrison Assistant Secretary, R.S. [Royal Society]'. |
