Contentsthanks them for wishes on his birthday, 10/08/1907 and on the birthday of Jim [James Loeb, born 06/08/1867]; both birthdays were celebrated at Kösterberg; Paul missed them very much; Puss [Nina Warburg] and Alice [Warburg] arranged a performance by the children at 4pm on 10/08/1097 and by adults in the eveing; it was a persiflage on the collection of paintings Paul Warburg has, Ribera, the Murillo, which was not bought, Bantzer, Israels, Schwill's [William V. Schwill,also Schevill?] portrait of Paul Warburg and [Hermann] Bruck's portrait of aunt Malchen [Amalie Goldschmidt]; Paul also took part, playing 'Serenissimus'; is happy that [Aby Warburg and Mary Warburg] and their children have a good holiday in Fanö; thanks him for a copy of the 'Sassetti' article; is very happy that he has his own copy, he had to read it several times to undestand the text, as Warburg tries to put into one word a whole bundle of ideas; finds the Sassetti document a very interesting document, the key to the thinking and feeling of an era; praises the article, detailed appraisal: finds that it could have been longer, more on Sassetti, the man and merchant; it should have been published in a cultural history of Florence and should not have been forced artificially into the Festschrift; Warburg's work is a mosaic and Paul wished he would have painted a much larger picture; does not find the passage on Fortuna convincing, more should have been on Rucellai
