- Scope and Content:
- "My Dear Sir, I had better not have troubled you to send the paintings from statues to the academy - the sculptors on the council, not understanding the foreshortenings, abused the works as below criticism & the painters had nothing to say in their favour except out of politeness to me. So ends this episode. The works are left to be sent for by the Department, & again I regret having given you needless trouble. Yours faithfully, C.L. Eastlake."
