Date	26 August 1856
Writer	Piloty & Loehle; art publishers to the King of Bavaria

Description	The writer informs Becker that the lithographs commissioned by the Prince Consort of the two paintings by Raphael in Munich, the Baptism of Christ and the Resurrection, have been completed and the first 20 'avant la lettre' examples of each will be sent to Becker tomorrow. Piloty & Loehle's bill for the work (not present) accompanies this letter, and the writer asks Becker to arrange for it to be paid in full, without deductions for currency exchange charges. These were deducted from the last payment Becker made. A note by Becker at the top of the letter records his reply promising to make sure that this and future bills will be paid in full.
