Lettre autographe signée à Julien Levy avec 3 marques de rouge à lèvres. [Coyoacan], 16 août 1939.

Elle se plaint du manque d'argent : "If I had dough, I would go immediately to Florida, but I have not a damn cent extra and must stay where I am." Elle s'excuse de la part de Diego Rivera de devoir reporter une exposition chez Julien Levy à l'année ultérieure :"Diego worked a lot for the show but never the less he thinks he has not enough things for this october-november, so he decided not to have his exibition this year. He wanted to write to you explaining everything but his English is even worse than mine and he asked me to do it. I am terribly sorry he changed his mind only three months before the show was planed (...) but at the same time I know he is right because he realy wanted to have a big show and he has only few important things (...)". Frida conclut sa lettre par 3 marques de rouge à lèvres ([Coyoacan], 16 août 1939, 2 p. in-4).

Kahlo apologizes for Rivera decision to cancel the exhibition of his surrealist paintings at Levy's gallery, scheduled for autumn of 1939. Rivera had just been invited to paint a new mural in San Francisco at the Golden Gate International Exhibition and was urging to leave Mexico because of political reasons that came as result of the assassination of Leon Trotsky. Once again Frida recalls Muriel Streeter and wishes to keep in touch with her. Frida acknowledges in the letter that Julien and Muriel where a loving couple, but nevertheless send her "love" to both and a "kiss" to each one.
