PISSARRO CAMILLE: (1830-1903) French Impressionist painter. A good A.L.S., C. Pissarro, two pages (written to the first and final sides of the bifolium), 8vo, Paris, 6th September 1891, to his wife ('Ma chere Julie'), in French. Pissarro states that they are looking forward to hearing news from his wife, and continues to send news of his own, explaining that he has visited Paul Gallimard who has arranged to make a book with Lucien, 'Il est convenu que M. Gallimard doit ecrire a Geffroy qui est absent pour lui prier de faire un conte que Lucien illustrera de gravures en couleurs et autres ce sera tres artistique et conviendra tout a fait.....c'est donc une chose arrangee.....il va donc pouvoir faire un livre dont le texte sera grave sur bois et illustre de gravures en couleurs a l'eau ce qui ne s'est jamais fait; j'espere que bien compris ce livre fera grand bien a Lucien. C'est une chance exceptionale que d'avoir trouve cette affaire' (Translation: 'It is agreed that Mr. Gallimard should write to Geffroy, who is absent, to ask him to write a story that Lucien will illustrate with colour engravings and the like. It will be very artistic and will suit perfectly…..so it's one thing arranged…..he will therefore be able to make a book whose text will be engraved on wood and illustrated with colour engravings in water, which has never been done; I hope that this book will do Lucien great good. It's an exceptional chance to have found this business'). Pissarro further remarks 'J'ai porte 5 tableaux chez Durand Ruel, j'attends une reponse, je ne sais encore si ces toiles lui plaisent il n'a pas souffle un mot' (Translation: 'I took 5 paintings to Durand Ruel, I'm waiting for an answer, I don't know yet if he likes these paintings, he hasn't said a word'). A letter of interesting content and artistic references. A few small, neat splits and minor tears to the edges, G
