Document content
Knud Ferlov writes to Sonja Ferlov Mancoba about having the courage and strength of humility in life and about the difference between divine love and earthly love. He also writes about the difference between man and woman. The former is thought and spirit, the latter is senses, primitiveness, and motherhood. Furthermore, Knud Ferlov distances himself from the student uprising. He is pleased that Sonja Ferlov Mancoba also admires Fra Angelico, and he contemplates modern Madonna worship.
