Correspondence to Alma Mahler, ca. 1953-1964.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/457136449

Many of the letters are written from Paris, where Floch had a studio, and he sometimes comments on the political and cultural atmosphere there. In general, he often mentions books he's reading (sometimes books which he and Alma are exchanging) and musical and theatrical performances he has attended. The postcard from the unidentified correspondent is of the bust of Gustav Mahler at the MuseĢe Rodin (for that reason he might have given it to Alma). Also contained in the folder are: a charcoal sketch by Floch, probably a lithograph: a double portrait of a man and a woman (possibly himself and his wife); 2 blank postcards issued by Bernhardt Crystal Galleries, NYC, depicting works by Floch, one of which is an invitation to a private preview of an exhibition in 1962; and a brochure for the same exhibition, inscribed to Alma Mahler.
