Correspondence with Edith Maryon 1912–1924

GA 263 — 8 March 1922, Hildesheim

Letter from Edith Maryon

Edith Maryon to Rudolf Steiner

Sculptor's studio, Goetheanum
March 8, 1922

Dear and honored teacher!

I am sending you a Theosophical letter that was meant for you.

Today the fourth block of Lucifer was delivered, and I hope to restore some order in the studio by tomorrow evening. It would have been impossible for you to work here during this time. Your corner with the table and everything was completely cleared, and they built a kind of track where the blocks could travel; and where Ahriman stood, there is now a forest of beams and poles, etc.; the studio furniture and the models are all piled up in the corners. It's quite uncomfortable, but necessary. There are between four and ten workmen at a time (I help myself with some cologne to improve the air!). Also, from time to time, all the doors are open. But by the end of the week everything will be nice again; I expect it to be ready by next Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. I am very glad to hear that everything went well at the lectures in Leipzig after all. I would like to hear more about it and also learn something about eurythmy.

I hope you have not heard many lectures from this program... [see drawing, facsimile p. 90], and that you will gain some time for other things. I very much hope that all is well with your health, and that you will come back Tuesday or Wednesday?

With warmest regards

Edith Maryon
