Scope and content
Enquires about the photographs of Jamie Wyeth. He is having a big show at Knoedlers. Jamie has lots of commissions, but few people realize what posing means. Has put in 108 hours in seven weeks and there is lots more to go. Believes that Jamie is the first since Augustus John to be able to provide a classic portrait. Discusses Buckle. The Royal Danes opened last night and were earnest and ugly. Trumbull Barton and John McHugh got asked to twelve out of the thirteen parties given for Mrs. Armstrong-Jones.
