Dear Mr de László

Thank you for your letter and for so kindly recommending me to Lord Roberts.

I shall be very pleased to make a copy [6929] of your portrait [6931] of him should he commission me to do it.

I return to Gerrards Cross next Wednesday and I think I could start the work almost immediately as it

[Page 2]

seems unlikely that I shall get the portrait of Lord Curzon [3890] for some time.

I enclose a copy of a letter from Sir William Anson[1] which will explain the situation. I have written to Mr Grant Robertson asking when I may expect to have the portrait but there has hardly been time for me to have a reply yet.

Again thanking you | Believe me | Yours truly

Frederick Cullen
