| Contents | he needs to buy the excellent books by [Carlo] Merkel since he cannot evade any longer what will be his main task: to write a big book about Florence in the 15th century, the cultural history of the city; he has prepared himself well for the task, he has written about art, festivals, the influence of classical antiquity and of Flanders, the area still missing is literature; is looking forward to start working on it; his health is not too bad, but work in the archive is very difficult as it is not heated; Davidsohn is wearing his fur coat for work; is sorry for himself that his family has not allowed him to buy a fur coat; is sure that Felix [Warburg] has 10 to 100 fur coats, whereas Warburg, 'the poor champion of modern art history' has not even one single fur coat; asks her to start a subscription for the purchase of a fur coat; likes the latest photographs of 'Bubi' [Max Adolph]; sends greetings to Detta [Marietta Warburg], [Louise and Julius] Derenberg; he is having lunch with Mr and Mrs [Arthur?] Hesse |
