Though not postally used itself, each card appears to have been posted inside an envelope to the Academy, as a covering note dated 8 May 2004 from the artist to the Academy announces that she is now back in Berlin after her Scholarship travel to Italy. “Dear RSA,/ I am now back in Berlin, with some regret and relief! It was an incredible [sic] experience [sic] which without the scholarship I would never have achieved alone. I found the time in Florence inspirational. The time I spent ‘flying’ round Italy was simply amazing. It is something that I will remember and refer back to often. Thank you./ I am vastly looking forward to the [Kinross portfolio] meeting in January [2005]. Would it be possible to see all the postcards I sent together? I’m quite curious!/ Please feel free to contact me here on/ Berlin – Gray Galbraith/ RHEINGOLDSTR. 27A/ BERLIN 10318/ GERMANY/ or in Edinburgh./ Thankyou again!/ much thanks/ Gray Galbraith/ PS. My recommendation for Venice? Wellies! It floods a lot!!”
