Pièce 23 - Letter from Roger Fry to R. C. Trevelyan

Mentions a 'heated Wagnerian discord' on the last occasion he and Trevelyan met; expects he himself as a third party was most exasperating. Wishes they were coming north to see Trevelyan: wants to talk to him about Moore's poems ["The Vinedresser and Other Poems"?] which he tends to appreciate. Sees many traces of [George] Meredith there. Discusses books: [William] Roscoe's life of Lorenzo [de' Medici] is very good; didn't see the Leonardo but thinks it must be incomplete, as well as 'faked and edited'; doesn't know Nicolini but expects it will be good reading; 'Eber's thing' [?] is very popular, he has not read it himself and does not think it can be first rate from its enthusiasts. Has painted a tempera picture of Shillingley Park [sic: Shillinglee Park?] which he thinks his best so far. Asks Trevelyan to visit before they go to Italy and see about his house.
