"I just arrived from St Tropez: it is impossible for you not to come and live there one day. Colette praises the charms of St Tropez to her friends the Berthelots and brings Philippe a portrait of a cat that she had promised him. "Dear Hélène and Philippe, I just arrived from St Tropez: it is impossible for you not to come and live there one day.
Is it not worth Plessis-Macé? I brought the portrait of the cat that I promised to Philippe, I will leave it at your place as soon as I emerge from a pile of papers, which are completely disgusting. But maybe I will see you tonight at Marivaux-Douglas? Thank God, you are frivolous!
I love you and embrace you both. There is no need to further develop Colette's love for cats. Let us simply note that Philippe Berthelot offered her a female serval from Chad, named Bâ-Tou, in 1921. Colette and her husband Henry de Jouvenel moved into a small mansion at 69 bd Suchet, in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, in November 1916. After their breakup and the departure of her ex-husband, Colette lived there until December 1926.Consult our manuscripts The Autographes des Siècles Gallery specializes in the sale and expertise of autograph letters and manuscripts of great personalities from past centuries.
