Title	Letter from Dominic Colnaghi to Dr. Ernst Becker correcting a mistake in his earlier letter about Raphael drawings he has sold.
Date	13 November 1858
Writer	Colnaghi, Dominic; art dealer
Addressee	Becker, Ernst, Dr.; Librarian to the Prince Consort
Description	Colnaghi writes that he sold the Raphael drawing 'Two male figures' to Edward Cheney of Shrifnal and not to Dr. Wellesley as stated in his earlier letter (see VIC/ADDA10/85/34). He has written to Cheney about it, and reports that Dr. Wellesley has said that any unengraved Raphael drawings he has are at the Prince Consort's disposal [for photography]. He encloses a letter (not present) from Mr Boulton about his Raphael drawings but has not yet heard from Mr Vaughan. He will try to find the English prints wanted for HRH's collection. A note at the top of the letter records that Becker replied on 16 November.
