Henri MATISSE (1869–1954)
Handwritten letter, signed and dated 28 March 1942
“Dear Madam,
I hope your short stay in the countryside has done you a world of good.
Do come and see me one of these days, if you’d like, but please give me a ring the day before.
The lady delivering this letter has a tall son who has grown a little too quickly and would benefit from a better diet than he gets in the city. I have told him about the delightful spot where you have been resting. I would be very grateful if you could provide him with the information he needs to make a decision on this matter. Thank you in advance.
Dear Madam, I look forward to seeing you soon.
Please accept my warmest regards.
Henri Matisse."
Directly from the correspondence of Henri Matisse’s correspondent.
