Description

This letter has been published. De Noailles tells Lipchitz his plans for the next several months, and asks him if he is in Paris in November, when they can meet and talk. He also writes that he got to know about Lipchitz's surgery from Geuvrekian and he is happy that it went well and Lipchitz has recovered. He mentions 'the works', which are made by Geuvrekian. It is a famous modernist architect Gabriel Geuvrekian who was building the Cubist garden for the Villa Noailles (de Noailles calls it 'his [Geuvrekian's] little garden') at this time.
