Extractafskrift
af
en Skrivelse af 16 Juli 1844 fra Executorerne i
Thorvaldsens Bo til Professor Bissen.

Paa Forespørgsel have vi i Skrivelse af DD^to meddelt DHr Justitsraad Thiele Advocat Ricci og Bravo, at Thorvaldsens Værksted ikke vil blive at fortsætte i Rom, men at Conradins Statuen [sic] dog skal forblive der til nærmere Bestemmelse.

Vi formene i saa Henseende ikkun at have handlet i Overeensstemmelse med Hr Professorens tidligere udtalte Anskuelse, men have dog troet at burde underrette Dem derom, for at give Dem Leilighed til at tage Beslutning om, hvorvidt andre af Thorvaldsens, i Rom henstaaende ufuldendte Arbeider burde forblive sammesteds. Skulde dette være tilfældet, tillade vi os at anmode Dem om med omgaaende Post directe desangaaende at tilskrive dHr Ricci&Bravo [sic], der have modtaget Ordre til i nogen Tid at afvente Deres Beslutning i saa Henseende. –

Copy of Extract
of
a letter of July 16^th 1844 from the executors in
Thorvaldsen’s estate to professor Bissen.

On inquiry we have in letter of this day informed messrs Thiele councillor, the solicitor Ricci, and Bravo that Thorvaldsen’s studio will not be continued in Rome, but that the statue of Conradin shall remain there until a more precise decision has been taken.

We think in this respect we have only acted in accordance with the professor’s opinion expressed earlier, but have wanted to inform you about it to give you an opportunity to decide whether other unfinished works by Thorvaldsen should remain in the same place. If this is the case we ask you by return post to write specifically about this to Messrs Ricci & Bravo, who have orders to wait a while for your decision in this respect.

[written in another direction in the left margin:]
Produced in Konferensråd Thorvaldsen’s estate October 23^rd 1844.
