Content Description

After hearing from Mr. Westmacott Jr. he feels he has to write on the subject of the "prejudices" of Mr. Evans; this whole affair has caused him great pain; he attributes Evans's opinions to nervous disorder as the artists in Rome certainly offered him no ill-feeling; he has passed on Lawrence's message to Camuccini regarding the picture [of George IV's portrait in the Vatican.]
