BELMONDO PAUL: (1898-1982) French Sculptor. Father of the actor Jean-Paul Belmondo. Scarce A.L.S., `Belmondo´, one page, to a postcard photograph, Corberon par Maison Rouge, n.d., [1977], in French. Belmondo states in part `Nous sommes au repos en plein champs. Ce calme incite à la paresse… C´est avec le plus grand plaisir que je ferai la médaille de Madame le Ministre Saunier Saité, en plus qu´elle est Jolie et très sympathique. Ma femme et moi avons beaucoup d´admiration pour elle. Il me tarde de continuer ton buste…´ (Translation: “We are resting in the open fields. This calm encourages laziness… It is with the greatest pleasure that I will make the medal of Madame the Minister Saunier Saité, in addition to the fact that she is pretty and very friendly. My wife and I have great admiration for her. I can't wait to continue your bust...”) Belmondo was also a renowned Medalist. In this letter he refers to Alice Saunier Saité, Minister of the Universities. To the front the postcard shows La Tour de Cesar in Provins. VG
