Kiobenhavn, d 9 Marts 1844
Conferentsraad Thorvaldsen og Conferentsraad Collin anholder allerunderdanigst [xxxxxxxxx] om Udfærdigelse af et kongeligt, og Skiode eller Gavebrev til Københavns Commune paa den til det Thorvaldsenske [xxxxxxx] Museum [xxxxxxxxx] skienkede Grund og Eiendom. 		 
Til Kongen
    Ved et Kongeligt Rescript af 4 Juni 1839 til Slotsbygningskommissionen, hvilket under 5 s. M. meddeeltes den oprindelige Commitee til Oprettelsen af Thorvaldsens Museum, af hvilken Comitee medundertegnede Collin var første Medlem, blev allernaadigst skienket til Indretning af dette Museum den Bygning som stod paa det Sted, hvor [xxxxxx] man siden, ved tillige[?] at indtage og bebygge en Deel af den mod den vestlige Side tilstødende Grund har opført Museet.
Staden Kiøbenhavn, som jeg Thorvaldsen ved et under 8 Dec 1838 med allern. confirmeret Gavebrev af 5 næstforhen, have skienket alle [xxx] mine Samlinger, [xxxxxxxx] og som har bidraget betydeligt til dets[?] Museets Opførelse, er imidlertid ikke i Besiddelse af noget Document, der hiemler [dxx] Communen Eiendomsret ikke blot til Grunden, hvorpaa Bygningen er opført imed tillige til den fri Grund udenfor samme, som er nødvendig for et saadant architectonisk Værk. Undertegnede, [xxx], [xxx] [xxxx] [xxxxxxxxxxx] i [xxxx] Anliggende [xxxx] [xxxxxxx] [Comite?], [xxx] [xxxxxxxx] [Magistrat] og [xxxx] Borger[xxxxxxxxxx] maae derfor allerunderdanigst at anholde om, at et saadant Document maatte udfærdiges, [xxxmed] med hvilket Museet tillige sikkredes en aldeles fri og uforhindret Passage af 12 til 15 Alens Bredde altid og til alle Sider for Kiørende og Gaaende, da dets fri Beliggenhed var den Betingelse hvorunder [Txxxxxxxxxxx] den gamle Bygning modtoges til dens ny Bestemmelse, og 2, en saa stor Deel af [xx] den udenfor Hovedfacaden mod Vest liggende Grund, som paa vedlagte Grundtegning indkredses af Linierne ab, bc, cd, til uindskrænket og udelukkende Afbenyttelse og til Ziir for Museet. Vi tilfoie endnu den allerunderdanigsre Bøn, at Museet maatte vorde allernaadigst fritaget for Erlæggelse af [xxxxxxxx] [Kongelige?] [xxx] [xxxxxxxx] Skatter [xxxxxxxx] og Afgifter. [af] [xxxx] [xxxx] [xxxxxx] [xxx].

Copenhagen, March 9th 1844
Konferentsråd Thorvaldsen and Konferentsråd Collin most humbly apply for [xxxxxxxxx] issuing of a royal [decision] and a deed of conveyance or a deed of gift to the Copenhagen council of the donated piece of land and building for Thorvaldsen’s [xxxxxxx] Museum [xxxxxxxxx] 		 
To the King,
    By a royal ordinance of June 4th 1839 to the Building Commission for Christiansborg Palace which on the 5th the same month was conveyed to the original committee for the Foundation of Thorvaldsen’s Museum the building which was on the site was most graciously donated for the establishment of this museum and on this site [xxxxxx] later by occupying and building on part of the adjacent site on the western side the museum has been erected, The countersigned Collin was the first member of the committee.
The City of Copenhagen which I Thorvaldsen by December 8th 1838 with a most graciously granted probate deed of gift of the 5th last month have donated all [xxx] my collections [xxxxxxxx] and who have contributed considerably to the foundation of the museum do, however, not possess any document which establishes ownership to the Council not only to the site on which the building has been erected but also to the vacant site outside the building, which is necessary for such an architectural work. The undersigned [xxx], [xxx] [xxxx] [xxxxxxxxxxx] in [xxxx][anliggende] [xxxx] [xxxxxxx][committee?] [xxx] [xxxxxxxx] [Magistrat] and [xxxx] citizen [xxxxxxxxxx] must therefore most humbly apply for such a document to be issued. [xxxwith] with which the museum would also be guaranteed a completely free and unimpeded passage of 12 to 15 alen [1alen = ca 2 feet ] broad, always and to all sides for drivers and walkers, as its free location was the condition for [Txxxxxxxxxxx] accepting the old building for its new purpose and 2, such a large part of [xx] the site towards west outside the main front, which on the enclosed drawing of the site is encircled by the lines ab, bc, cd for unrestricted and exclusive use and ornamental for the museum. We most humbly add the request for the museum to be most graciously exempted from payment of taxes and dues [xxxxxxxx] [royal?] [xxx] [xxxxxxxx] Skatter [xxxxxxxx] og Afgifter. [af] [xxxx] [xxxx] [xxxxxx] [xxx].
[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
        most humble
 
            Tho.         C.
