- Scope and Content:
- Corbould writes regarding his submission to the RA that year, "Pelleas & Ettarre." A visitor to his studio has noted the similarity in subject matter between the picture and one he submitted the previous year to the International Exhibition. Corbould wondered if this was grounds for his picture's rejection by the RA committee sent to J.P. Knight to inquire. Knight replied that this would not be grounds for rejection. Corbould asks Redgrave to remind other members of the committee that the work is not the same as the previous painting, which was carried out in watercolor as opposed to oil.
