Dear Mrs. Still: / We at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art / share with the art world the loss of one of this / country's great masters. In memory of your husband / and his achievement, the Museum has installed a small / memorial exhibition of his work. The installation / was made possible through the generosity and coop- / eration of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Weisman who loaned / three of the paintings to the Museum. The fourth / painting has been on extended loan to the Museum. / I am enclosing photographs of the exhibition which / I thought you might appreciate having. Should you / have the occasion to be in Los Angeles it would be / a special honor for me to show you our Museum. / Sincerely, / Earl A. Powell, III
