Dear friend, I find this drawing very beautiful. I am completely incapable of correcting anything and I don't even know what it's about: there's no empty space since the figure is alone. Besides, I don't accept corrections. Educate yourself. Read the books of Matila Ghika [Ghyka, Romanian poet] […] We don't speak the same language, but I send you my love. Max Jacob.

What are you going to do at La Peau de Chagrin? Does Salvador Dalí write too? Yes, I think so. Picasso hardly ever sees anyone but his old friends. What relationship does he have with Pierre Bergé, who is indeed a charming man?
