We are making progress. I have confirmation of the Mitchell provenance back to the 90's and also the name of the dealer from whom the Herakles may have come from. I am more then happy to speak to Mr. Epstein. What is the best time to reach him?

Dear Richard,

We now have independent confirmation that the marbles were in the Jan Mitchell collection. The earliest date we have is circa 2010 which is not sufficient for auction. The next step would either be to contact the dealer from who your client acquired them or alternatively the son of Mitchell to sec if either have further info.

We look forward to hearing from you.

All the best,

Max

Dear Richard,

## Richard (cont.)

It was a pleasure meeting with you last week and a thrill to see the incredible Roman marble Hercules and the two-figure group. As I explained during the visit, the only way for me to supply a correct value on them is to have the details of their provenance. I very much look forward to hearing from you, and as soon as I have that info, I will be able to respond immediately.

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

Sincerely,

G. Max Bernheimer
