Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh
(24 March 1882)
... lately, and am busy from
morning till night. First, the little drawings for C.M. They
are finished, and I have sent them to him 1 . I had
hoped he would pay me at once, and since he has not, I am
afraid he will forget it, and when will he send it now??? I

... said something about conventions, I
believe. I have done twelve drawings for C. M. for 30 guilders,
that is 2.50 guilders apiece; it was a difficult job, there was
more than 30 guilders' worth of work in it, and I don't deserve
having to consider it charity, or... | Letters from Reverend Van Gogh to Theo van Gogh

nurses grievances against Uncle Cor because he has not been
very enthusiastic about his drawings. Van Rappard, who had seen
them, had called them good. This Van Rappard remains faithful
to him; he has written... |

... but it will come by and by.
I have had news from C. M. in the form of a postal order for
20 guilders but without one written word. So I do not know as
yet whether he will give me a new order, or whether the
drawings are to his liking. But in comparison with... | Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Anthon van Rappard

... guilders you were so kind
as to lend me. I got a letter about my drawings, but received
even less than I expected, although I did not expect more than
30 guilders for the seven sheets. I received 20 guilders with a
scolding in the bargain: did I happen to think... | Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh

C. M. has those two and they were the ones Rappard was
pleased with, especially the large one. I should like you to
have a look at them if you happen to be at C. M.'s, for I
should like to know what you think,... |

especially on rent.
And having paid my debts with the money from C. M., I think
it might be good to act quickly.
In fact, I think it would be superfluous for me to go there
first to gather information.

her behave better.
Today I sent a number of studies to C. M.
I am very glad about your revised opinion about my work -
your revised opinion tallies with Rappard's - Van der Weele
also thinks there is something in my work. Personally,... | Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh

As to C. M., I sent him more than twenty studies, so I think
he cannot be dissatisfied - besides, he can exchange them for
others later. As you haven't much to spare yourself, I want to
suggest that you explain... |
