Scope and content
Cortona (Arezzo). - Expects Trevelyan has just arrived in Italy, and is looking forward to him coming; hopes the weather will be better than the mist and rain today. Has just had a visit from the 'disciple', K. [Kenneth] Clark, who is charming. Would like Trevelyan to come on the 21st to meet his friend [Guglielmo degli?] Alberti, who has to return to his home at Turin for Christmas. He travelled over with Mr and Mrs Waterfield, so Trevelyan can ask for their impressions of him. Clark gave him good news of the I Tatti household, including 'Miss Nicky' [Mariano]; B.B. [Bernard Berenson] is in high spirits despite finding 'on the center of his roof a tower with a clock'.
