ALS in French, signed "C. Pissarro," two pages on two adjoining sheets, 4 x 6, June 10, 1897. Addressed from London, a handwritten letter to fellow painter Claude Monet, acknowledging that he understands the embarrassment of Monet, who was unable to invite him "to the wedding feast" of his son Jean: "I too find myself very much prevented, at this moment, as a result of Lucien's long convalescence, from attending anything." He bids good wishes for the young couple, and states that he plans to stay in London "until Lucien's full recovery," but thinks he will be able to leave for Eragny at the end of the month. In fine condition, with scattered faint toning.
