The Crownprince of the Sweden saw the bell when he visited Peking and was very favourably impressed, but he is very careful and wants all information that we can dossibly gather on ine matter.

Tne surface and specially the patina seems to support the first opinion. Granted tnat the specimen now offered to us is a replica of an earlier original, it seems quite probable that such a fine specimen must be known to experts en Chinese bronzes. 9o I take tne liberty of sending you two photographs of the bell, asking you kindly to inform me whether you know any specimen that could possibly be the original to our specimen. The bell is approximately 26 inches high, Thanking you in anticipation of your kind help I have the honor to. remain ( Yours truly Tillverkad Stockholm Andersson, Johan Gunnar 1927-06-01 Mottagen Pelliot, Paul image/jpeg https://collections.smvk.se/carlotta-om/web/image/tn/10055246/E1A-1_0685.jpg https://collections.smvk.se/carlotta-om/web/image/zoom/10055245/E1A-1_0685.jpg http://kulturarvsdata.se/resurser/License#cc0 Andersson, Johan Gunnar Utgången upphovsrätt http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-OM/arkiv/204080 http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-EM/name/1239710 http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-EM/name/2432733 http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-OM/arkivdokument/html/514591 http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-OM/arkivdokument/xml/514591 http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-OM/arkivdokument/rdf/514591
