Title
Letter from Paris Exposition Internationale 1937 to Jacques Lipchitz
Date
20 July 1936
Description
A 'conseilleur technique charge de la direction des travaux d'art'[signature illegible, but most probably it's Mr Hautecour]' of the Exhibition informs Jacques Lipchitz that he has been selected to create 'decorations' for the Palais de la Decouverte. Lipchitz should discuss the details with Mr Leveille, secretary of the Group I, and Mr Debre, architect of the Palais.
