Title
Letter from Ronald Moody to Marie Seton, addressed from London
Date
2 March 1949
Description
In this letter Moody expresses pleasure that Seton's article on him for 'The Studio' has been taken and requests three copies of it. He mentions his forthcoming exhibition at the Overseas Club and provides details of sculptures he wants Marie to bring to England [these are sculptures which were sent to the Harmon Foundation from Paris in Jan 1938]. Moody goes on to discuss at length the philosophy of 'recurrence'.
