Scope and Content

Nina thanks Anna for her last letter and for the precious friendship which Nina increasingly values. They have been in Norway for more than a month: first three weeks in Kristiania and now to take some sea baths. Later they intend to go to the mountains nearer to Bergen. A statue of Grieg is to be unveiled on 24 August: Nina has chosen the Norwegian artist [Ingebricht Vik] to do it [not Vigeland, whom Grieg disliked]. Nina expresses great sorrow that the world has suffering eveywhere. Dated 15 Jul 1917.
