"Dear Pierre Descargues, I've finally found your letter (and therefore your address) which I had misplaced. Unfortunately, I don't have a single photograph. I regret this very much, as I absolutely want to be included in your book. What can I do? I only have black and white photos. Would you like some? And when? Couldn't you write or call me (Segur 15.03) around October 20th or 25th? That's the way we'll be returning. We really need to see each other first. It's been a long time, as you say. Very best regards to you and your wife. Hans Hartung."
