Autograph letter signed : London, to Joan Severn, 1897 Nov. 11.

Describing the change of management of the South London Fine Art Gallery, with which Edward Burne-Jones had been connected for the last ten years; saying that this Gallery has "transferred from private to public and local management and is henceforth to be maintained 'under the Public Libraries Act' by the parish of Camberwell; adding that "the old Council, of which we were members, still helps them by getting works of art lent;" saying that there has been a large Technical and Art School built next to the Gallery and since Ruskin "was a burning and shining light in that neighborhood" she wonders if he might "lend us something....to put in the School of Art....or to hang on the walls of the picture Gallery."
