Dear Don,

The title of my contribution to the most recent issue (54)
of The Nabokovian was badly botched. The word "Artists," after being
removed from the title and low-cased, was mistakenly inserted in the text
(p. 5, 1st par., ln. 6 from the bottom). The title, thus, should read
"Artists Exiled, Art Treasures Sold." I asked Stephen J. Parker to print a
correction but it will appear in the Fall issue, in December. In the
meantime, I wish to set the record straight.

Many thanks.

Gavriel Shapiro
