ALS in his native language, signed “Alfons Mucha,” one page both sides, 8.25 x 11, May 7, 1935. In part (translated): “Originally I was supposed to start working in the beginning of July—now I see that I would not be able to start before the beginning of August. This is due to a delay in ordering the canvas from Brussels and because I need to make a study for every single figure in the picture. For these studies I will need my latest proposal which are now with you and I assume you can not give it back to me before the board meeting…Be so kind and let me know when there is some news, so I still could catch some of the long summer days for my work.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and an area of creasing near upper edge.
