Dear Richard,

We just =ad our Antiquities sale last Wednesday and it performed exceedingly =ell, with the top lot being an Egyptian portrait of Amenhotep Ill which =eached nearly $1.4 million against an estimate of $200/300,000. =his shows that the market has a tremendous appetite for exquisite =bjects with solid provenance that are fresh to the market and =nticingly estimated. With that in mind, I would very much like to =ontinue our discussion on the Epstein marbles, as I am sure these would =e much sought after by a wide array of potential buyers ranging from =he dedicated collectors to those searching for beautiful and decorative =orks of art.

Let me know when we could speak.

All the =est,

Max

Dear Richard,

I now have confirmation from Fallani =hat the two boys indeed came from him. Sadly, he has no =ocumentation from the 1960s so there isn't proof. =owever, with the information provided by the Greek and Roman department =t the MET, we have enough provenance to be able include the two boys as =ell as the Herakles in a future sale, as the curator listed them both =n an inventory from the early 1990s. So, if and when Mr. Epstein =ants to test the auction market, we are good to go.

Cheers,

Max

Dear Richard,

We now have independent confirmation =hat the marbles were in the Jan Mitchell collection. The earliest =ate we have is circa 2010 which is not sufficient for auction. =nbsp;The next step would either be to contact the dealer from who your =lient acquired them or alternatively the son of Mitchell to see if =ither have further info.

We look forward to hearing from you. =nbsp;

## Hi Richard,

I was told that they have a file on =itchell's collection, and from the descriptions, the curator =not in the office today) thought they sounded familiar. Alex, =hom you met last week, and copied here, will go to the MET on Tuesday =r Wednesday next week to search through the file.

In the meantime, if you hear anything =urther, just let me know.

I very much look forward to hearing from you, and as soon as = have that info, I will be able to respond immediately.

I hope this finds you well, and I look forward to hearing =rom you.
