In full (translated): “Thank you for the few lines and above all for your kind note so full of good memories and good welcome for me.” Double cloth-matted and framed with a portrait of Sand to an overall size of 18 x 15. In fine condition, with central horizontal and vertical folds. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
