ALS in French, one page both sides, 4.75 x 6.75, Mesnil-Beaufresne letterhead, September 14, [no year]. Letter to her biographer, art critic Achille Segard. In part (translated): "Mr. Durand-Ruel has just communicated to me his answer to your letter. I will ask you if you would be so kind as to tell your employee to allow the person sent by the Durand-Ruel Gallery to take my painting in your house. I would like to do what I have to do during my stay here in Paris where I have all the models and the proper place to work and October would be a little late if I leave Paris for the south of France." In fine condition. Paul Durand-Ruel was the most important commercial advocate of the Impressionists, and counted Degas, Monet, Manet, Pissarro, and Renoir amongst his other artists. A neatly penned, highly desirable letter directly related to her artwork.
