Dear Sir or Madam,
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a professional baker with a passion for bread, I am in the process of writing a book on the science and art of sourdough bread. The manuscript will be finished within a few months, and I intent to publish it within Belgium and the Netherlands, as it is written in Dutch.
|
|
|
|
During my research for the book, I came across Job Adriaenszoon Berckheyde's magnificent paintings of bakers and bakeries during the 17th century. One of those particular paintings, '_The Baker_' (1681), is exibited in the Worchester Art Museum. Since this painting displays an assortment of different forms of bread, I was hoping to embed this work into my book, in a chapter about different kinds of bread.
|
|
|
|
I hereby request permission to duplicate the work in printed media, in the form of a published book, and would like to be informed on the possible reproduction fees. Since a book about the world of sourdough bread is a niche (waiting to be filled) in our country, I do not expect it to sell more than a few thousand copies.
