Eugène FROMENTIN, Painter SIGNED AUTOGRAPH LETTER 2 PAGES

  

Dear friend, I was in the workshop precisely at 10 o'clock, waiting for you. At 2 o'clock, I went down to make sure there was no misunderstanding from the concierge.

The idiot gave me your card. The particular order I had given him to keep the instruction for the whole day. If, for a rare occasion that I allowed myself this true joy of receiving you in my workshop, I was sorry to have made you come, and to have appeared to disappoint you. I had all sorts of reasons to hold on... I had things on the easel that I wanted to show you?

There are others I told you about on which I wanted to test your preference. Because I really hesitate to offer you this mediocre souvenir of good friendship without being sure that at least you will like it.

My combination being thus destroyed. And finally, to top it off, you needlessly made the effort, and at this time you can believe me forgetful. It's 5 o'clock.

I get in the car and I run to your place. Eugène Samuel Auguste Fromentin born on October 24, 1820 in La Rochelle, where he died on August 27, 1876, was a French painter and writer.
