Comment on 28.7.1805

I.e. the above-mentioned “accompanying busts” of A.P. Bernstorff (Brahetrolleborg, cf. A208), Agrippa, A759, and Cicero, A760 and A761, which Thorvaldsen hoped, in vain, would be sold. It is clear from the letter that the sculptor wanted the proceeds to go to his needy father.
