Summary
Informing him that he regrets not having been able to go to Paris to see him, but he has been busy finishing up his work with his caster [molder], who will be leaving soon. The material he is working in is so delicate ["perishable"] that the sculptures he is creating have to be completed as quickly as possible to avoid their being ruined. In any case, he wouldn't have been able to go to Paris because he has had the flu, which has made it impossible for him to work. He asks Rosenberg to tell him how his plans are going.
