Description

Rare letter from Toulouse-Lautrec

French painter whose growth was permanently stunted as the result of a childhood accident; he drew his inspiration from music halls, cabarets, and circuses, as well as sporting events. Exceedingly rare French ALS signed 'T. Lautrec,' one page, 4.25 x 7, no date. Interesting content, as he alludes to his acrimonious relationship with art critics, in full: 'We remain open next week, so you may let it be known. I don't know if I asked you to do it yesterday. Thanks for the articles against the critics.' In fine condition, with some ink mirroring to the top edge. Very few Lautrec letters ever come to the market. COA John Reznikoff/University Archives and RRAuction COA.
