| Contents | supplies an idea for an illustration; Simplicissimus is not enough, Ludwig Thoma is somewhat 'casual' and [Gulbrandson, Olaf Leonhard], styled 'Gulbransson' 'too dry and poisonous'; wants to interest him in drawing a cartoon on the news that the Statue of Liberty in New York had been damaged; supplies information on the history of the Statue; stresses that the US has degenerated to the position of being a slave of Great Britain; describes his idea for the cartoon; he wants to purchase it from him; encloses a sketch [no longer extant]; Warburg feels compelled to act because he is convinced that the Entente will fail because it betrayed the spiritual richness of humanity |
