Interesting letter of A. Berg (1885-1935), Austrian composer and member of the second Viennese
School. The handwriting is hard to read. In the beginning Berg mentions a novel “Golofin” which he
has read (but not appreciated very much). He also writes down a title of a book “Erinnerungen an G.
Mahler v. Natalie Bauer-Lechner”. The 2 photographers Geiringer, autodidact, and Horovitz, who
followed graphic studies, shared a studio for portrait photography in Vienna between 1926-1938.
