- Scope and Content:
- "My Dear Mr Redgrave, Many thanks for your kindness in sending a second time upon the subject of the Paris Exhibition - I had given up all thoughts of exhibiting believing that portraits were not among the class of works acquired - that there was not enough general intent in them at least such portraits as I would contribute. But as I know that I may ask of your friendship to act for me I have entered one picture - a portrait of Gibson the sculptor, which if you really think may go it shall be so but if not be good enough to destroy the form enclosed - and believe me [...] I shall be grateful to you to [...] without regard to any feelings of tenderness in which you may fancy I may indulge - for I shall be always [...] yours W. Boxall."
