To Whom It May Concern

I have known Dr. Anita ORIENTER for more than 20 years and do consider her as an extraordinary gifted and intelligent personality. She graduated summa cum laude having written an excellent theses on „The Evolution from Medieval to Renaissance Art“. Her career confirmed her promising studies. As a painter she made several one man's shows and taught History of Art and Painting in several colleges in Braail and Italy. Her great artistic talent, her pleasant personality – she has a special talent to deal with young people – her ample experience in teaching combined with her knowledge of languages (French, German, Italian, Portuguese) will enable her to collaborate efficiently with American institutions of higher learning.

Some weeks ago she has completed a portrait of myself which shows her great artistic talent and which has been received with enthusiasm by all my friends. I have seen many of her paintings which impressed me very much. Specialized in restoration she asked me to let her restore a completely ruined picture I own which had been declared unrestorable by one of the official restorers of New York and the result of her work seems to me almost miraculous.
