Correspondence

A letter from Joyce van der Riet to Dorothea Bleek, from Grahamstown on 30 July 1932, concerning the copying of Bushman paintings. Joyce van der Riet is sending Dorothea the copies they made on farms near Bedford. They were unable to secure accommodation at Fort Beaufort. Van der Riet comments on some unusual features of the paintings copied and hopes Dorothea agrees that the paintings were of a good quality. Photographs were taken, when the weather permitted.
