Johan Barthold Jongkind Signed Autograph Letter

  
(1819 - 1891) - painter and engraver. Beautiful letter written by Honfleur where he paints "beautiful paintings after nature". "I waited to write to you about the results of my work and my existence. I always do my best, only time leaves much to be desired - the skies are cloudy and beautiful effects but often with rains that there is no way to stay outside. I've got a little canvas painting of six representing a honfleur street and then a little canvas of four with ships at the entrance to the honfleur harbour, finally I've done studies, through which I hope to be the same to make progress.

Now I'll tell you that we expect to stay for another couple of days in Honfleur. Only my funds are exhausted. Without this there would even be nothing to do for me with beautiful paintings after nature.

In any case, please send me one hundred francs per return from post - immediately to bet I will report to you. "I asked to be here in a family. I need 5.50 frs a day if I go back to Honfleur alone - but for these prices I need an order to make a good painting after nature".
