Legouvé, Ernest – Signed autograph letter. Words of thanks – Signed autograph letter, undated, on letterhead bearing the address 14 rue St Marc. The author (1807–1903) was a French playwright, poet, moralist and critic. ‘I thank you very much for giving me my New Year’s gift by sending me [...] a wealth of work and ideas in a small painting, in a small book, or even in a short chapter; this is the work of a mind enamoured of all that is rare, and for whom labour is the greatest reward for labour...’ He was elected to the Académie française in 1855 and was known at the time for his feminist views.
