1 Dec^r 1841

Sir

I requested my friend M^r Moore ² when he was in Town to call upon you & enquire whether you would like to publish a work on the scenery of Italy Germany &c. illustrated with photographic plates, or those which I have called Calotypes. But M^r Moore had left Town before my letter reached him, which I regret, as I have not the pleasure of being personally acquainted with you. Such a work as I allude to would be an entire novelty & therefore I think it might meet with considerable success – I have specimens of the art in Town which I should be happy to show you – I am, Sir

Your very obed^t Serv^t
H. Fox Talbot.
