I know you are very kind. So, I hope that asking for a small favor will not scare you too much. One of my friends, Édouard Estaunié, has just published a volume at Perrin which he had the honor of sending you, "Petits Maîtres", memories of Holland. I won't say that I find this volume of art criticism very good and very new.

I think so, but saying it may be commonplace. But if you would be so kind, you who handle the book section at L'Éclair with such tact, to say a few words about this work, it would be greatly appreciated.

Believe me, dear Sir, in my very distinguished feelings.
