Muut tiedot
Handwritten letter from Lindorm Liljefors, dated Dannemora, 15 March 1935:
Norrköping
Doctor Gösta Renck,
The undersigned would hereby respectfully like to thank you for xxx kr, which I have today received by post giro, and which amount constitutes full payment for my father's painting "Knipor".
Neither I nor my father can say for certain in which year the painting was made. However, it is probably during the period 1920 - 1925. I have a study by my father of two dead hanging teal signed 1924, and your painting is likely from about the same time.
With excellent high regard,
Lindorm Liljefors
