ROBINSON, JOHN CHARLES; KEEPER OF ART COLLECTIONS, SOUTH KENSINGTON MUSEUM

29 Jul 1858

(24) In reply to Becker's letter (see VICADDA10/85/23), Robinson expresses gratitude to the Prince Consort for his offer of photographs of the Raphael drawings at Windsor and lists seven which he would like, adding that he fears his minor contribution to HRH's collection is hardly worthy of such a return.
(24a) Note on the letter recording Becker's response, probably on the Prince's instructions, that he is to send the photographs requested and a few more.
