Letter from Leon J. A. Van Meldert to Theodore Roosevelt
Leon J. A. Van Meldert writes to Theodore Roosevelt to discuss the Museum of Brussels’ purchase of a 1640 painting that depicted the coat of arms of the Flemish “van Roseveldt” family. Van Meldert also expresses his desire to represent the United States at the International Exhibition taking place in Belgium in 1913, and requests that Roosevelt helps him achieve this in whatever way he can.
