Title
Letter from Nina A.Dzhivilegova to Berthe Lipchitz
Date
28 April 1935
Description
Nina, a wife of Andrei Shimkevich, thanks Jacques and Berthe for their letter and cheque. She writes about her medical problems, that a blood transfusion was performed, and hopefully, it will help her to recover. Andrei is still far away (probably in Bolshevo), his 'manager fall sick, and that's why he is nervous'. Since she fall ill, Andrei and she could see each other on weekends. She also discusses the possible arrival of Berthe to Moscow this year, together with Jacques Lipchitz.
