CAILLEBOTTE GUSTAVE: (1848-1894)
CAILLEBOTTE GUSTAVE: (1848-1894) French painter associated with the Impressionists. A.L.S., G Caillebotte, one page, 8vo, n.p., n.d., to Claude Monet, ('Mon cher ami'), in French. The artist sends some money to his friend Monet and informs him about his progress with his paintings, saying `Voici 200F. Quel sale temps! j´ai commencé une dizaine de toiles, mais depuis huit jours il pleut régulièrement, la moitié du temps. He suis désolé. Je commence à m´embêter at pourtant j´auraus voulu faire pas mal de choses---´ (Translation"Here you have 200F. What a bad weather! I started about ten paintings, but for the past eight days it has been raining regularly half of the time. i am sorry. I'm starting to get crossed and yet I would have liked to achieve many things") A very clean letter with good association, addressed to Claude Monet. VG
Claude Monet (1840-1926) French Impressionist Painter.
