"Nervousness - nonsense keep calm.. .[I] haven't seen everything already [of the submission of Suze Robertson for the exhibition 'Kunst van Heden' in Antwerp]. - [we] were busy unpacking - let me rummage around - you must come to the opening - banquet!. .Your submission is looking good. Yesterday Baseleer was in the hall and he was talking about a courtyard [of Suze] with white walls that was beautiful, I haven't seen it yet, had to make visits.. .I did see some.. ..nude figures and small paintings, wearing Suze's firm painting gesture, they are beautiful and rich in color.. .I will take care of your submission. So don't be nervous and let me handle it. Warmly Jacob (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)"
