F N SOUZA (1924 - 2002)

Property from the family collection of eminent art critic K.B. Goel (1930 - 2018), who was a great friend of the artist

Another original and very important letter, handwritten by Souza to Goel (as K.B. Goel was fondly called by the artist), with his New York address handwritten on the top right of the first page and dated October 20, 1976 wherein he writes about his friendship with K.B. Goel, talks about his divorces and ex-wives and also about his impending autobiography “THE LIFE & SEXUAL KARMA OF A BOHO ARTIST” amongst other personal things. An excerpt from the letter: “My friendship with you goes back to early 1965 when I was in Delhi, just married, on a honeymoon with my seventeen year old bride, and you used to accompany us to the melas etc. and show us the city, and we'd talk of all kinds of things. I had noted that your writing in Thought on art - you had written an article on me - was the best of its kind”.
