Title

Mary Berenson, Diary. 1933

Description

In a diary entry from 11 November 1933, Mary recorded Bernard’s reaction to her “A Life of Bernard Berenson” (cat. MB.IV.2): “Read the Siena chapter of BB’s life to [Umberto] Morra and Naima [Löfroth] and BB was really enthusiastic! He says it is exactly the record of himself he wants to leave to his ‘Foundation.’ I am so glad.”
