Description
8vo. 8 pages on 6 ff. In German, to the architect and designer Egon Riss. Kokoschka discusses the war with his friend and fellow refugee to the UK, whom he met through the Bauhaus. He thanks Riss for forwarding a message from his brother; it is so difficult to send letters now that war has been declared, he writes. He praises Stalin's efforts against Nazi Germany while berating Chamberlain, who (he says) has treated Hitler with velvet gloves. He asks about acquiring a visa and requests that Riss come to collect the translation of his play when it is finished.
