LÉVY (Henri Léopold), Peintre d'Histoire (NANCY 1840 - Paris 1904)

- L.A.S. 27 December - 3pp in-8° - "My dear Mr. de VÉJRAN. I have just received your letter and I thank you very much for it and for the care you have taken for my flowers which will be welcomed here, I am sure, with the pleasure of sunburn crossing a dark sky. Ours no longer has any colour, in no human language, it is mud, melting mud that mixes with the one where our feet are wading. I often think of Cannes as the azure I remember a little bit, of our good walks, of everything that is so beautiful and so far away, alas. I look forward to your article that will bring me back to yesterday's past, embalmed with art and beautiful nature. You're very kind to include my name in it..." He is working on a small medallion of the Baroness's son "which will complete the decoration of the brown lounge..." He wants to include in his article reproductions of paintings -
