Re: Loan Agreement between Narrows Holdings LLC and the Jewish Museum
I. The Loan.
Narrows Holdings LLC is loaning Study for Nude with Drapery by Pablo Picasso to the
Jewish Museum for its Helena Rubenstein: Beauty is Power exhibition, on view from October 31,
2014 through March 22, 2015.
II. Credit Line; Catalogue.
The credit line for wall labels and the catalogue will be "Private Collection." The Jewish
Museum will send two copies of the exhibition catalogue to you and one copy to Diana Howard.
III. Photography and Reproduction.
A. Digital File. If available, Diana will provide a digital file with images of the Picasso
to the Jewish Museum for its use in connection with the exhibition.
B. Photography. To the extent a museum wants to take photographs or video of a work
itself, Diana specifies the maximum light levels to which the work may be safely
exposed. For this Picasso, Diana has specified maximum light levels of 40 lux and
required that it be covered with opaque paper during installation and de-installation
(when the light level in the room will be necessarily high). The Picasso will also
be protected by a shatterproof anti-reflective, which will be removed when it is
returned to you. We always require museum curatorial or conservation staff to
oversee any photography or filming of a work.
C. Copyright. Works by Picasso are still protected by copyright, so the loan agreement
makes clear that Narrows does not own the copyright in the Picasso and the Jewish
Museum must obtain any necessary copyright clearances in order to reproduce
images of it. Provided that has been done, the loan agreement allows the Jewish
Museum to reproduce the Picasso in the exhibition catalogue, for publicity purposes
and for commercial merchandise (such a postcards) sold during the exhibition for
the benefit of the museum.

IV. Shipping; Condition Reports.
A. Shippkgi . The Picasso will be hand carried to the Jewish Museum, accompanied by
Diana. She will oversee unpacking and installation at the museum and, when the
exhibition is over, she will return to the museum to oversee repacking and the return
of the Picasso to your residence.
B. Condition Reports. We require condition reports to be prepared for the Picasso
each time it is moved, i.e., before it is packed at your residence, when it arrives at
the museum and is unpacked, at the end of the exhibition before it is repacked and
when it arrives back at your residence and is unpacked. We also require the
museum to notify us immediately if there is any damage to the Picasso during the
exhibition.
V. Insurance.
Diana and Jeffrey Haber are consulted on the insurance provisions for loans to museums.
Diana determines the "insurance value" for each work loaned based on Sotheby's most recent
appraised value and what she thinks it would cost to replace the work in the marketplace. The
insurance value of the Picasso is $5,000,000. The Jewish Museum is covering the Picasso under
its own insurance policy. The museum has sent us a certificate of insurance evidencing the
coverage.
VI. Expenses.
The Jewish Museum is paying all expenses related to the loan, including shipping, courier
fees, condition reports, insurance and reproduction of the Picasso.
