" "Dear Richard, I just received your letter; I will send the money order f 10 [10 guilders] immediately for the swimming of Saar [their daughter, 10 years old]. She seems to be going well ahead, I think, at least if she can jump off the springboard by herself. Her letter was nice and cheerful. Yes I would have liked her to come here [in Heeze] but I am just afraid that I may not be able to work regularly or that she will get rather bored. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)

Additional quotes by Suze Robertson
What a struggle I had to make on that ['Mother and Child']. You would say, a nice assignment to make something good out of it, isn't it. I myself thought it that way. So I went to Heeze, I made a mass of studies of women with children, came back with the sketches to my studio.. .Oh, what an obsession..
