VAN DONGEN KEES: (1877-1968) Dutch-French painter. A.L.S., Kees Van Dongen, two pages, 4to, Villa Said (Paris), 5th July n.y. (1940s), to a friend, in French. Van Dongen explains that he only received his friend's letter of 12th June that day, explaining that it had not been forwarded from Lyon and remarking 'Voila l'unique raison pour laquelle vous n'avez pas plutot eu de moi un mot pour vous dire que je n'ecoute jamais les bavardages de femmes. Mais on ne m'a jamais rien dit de malverillant sur vous' (Translation: 'That's the only reason why you didn't hear a word from me to tell you that I never listen to the chatter of women. But I've never been told anything malicious about you') continuing 'Nous sommes loin de l'autre - je suis souvent absent - je ne recois pas - c'est la guerre, et voila il me semble les raisons pour lesquelles on ne se voit guere' (Translation: 'We are far from each other - I'm often absent - I don't receive - it's war, and here, it seems to me, are the reasons why we hardly see each other') and concluding by inviting his friend to call by his house for a cup of tea if he is ever in the neighbourhood. Two small, light stains to the upper edge, otherwise VG
