Important French painter and printmaker (1864–1901) whose lively, colorful portrayals of the people and places of fin-de-siècle Paris take a place among the most iconic images of the era. ALS in French, signed “T-Lautrec,” one page, 5 x 3, no date. Letter to art critic Gustave Geffroy. In full (translated): “My drawings are too big to be carried, but I’ll be in my studio at 4 o’clock today and tomorrow the whole afternoon. Come and see them, if you please. All must be ready by December 2.” A few brushes to text as well as some scattered edge creases, otherwise fine condition. Geffroy was a staunch supporter of Lautrec’s works, particularly those dealing with vices. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
