Letter from Vanessa Bell to Ling Shuhua ; 17 March, 1940. [Vanessa received a letter with New Year's pictures from Ling Shuhua]. They are lovely. Especially I think those on their paper which I suppose are those of the different gods. I had never seen anything like them before. I wonder if other people in England who know about Chinese things, such as Arthur Waley have seen things like these. I think I must try to show them to him. They are such exquisite color and drawing and we have all been looking at them again and again and thinkins how wonderful it is that such a present should have reached us her in the midst of the war, where one seems to be completely shut out from the outside world. |
