Description
[Manuscript] Alexandre DUMAS, also known as Alexandre Dumas the Elder (Villers-Cotterêts, 1802–1870), writer.
Signed autograph manuscript, intended for publication in one of his newspapers, such as *L’Indépendante* or *Le Monte-Christo*, whilst he was in Naples between 1861 and 1864.
An article in which Dumas examines Spain’s domestic and foreign political situation in relation to the Mexican and Roman questions.
“One of these mornings, we shall read in *Le Moniteur* these significant words: ‘The Marquis de Lavalette has been sent on an extraordinary mission to Madrid’ – which will mean – Emperor Napoleon wishes to put an end to all this dubious Spanish politics and is sending his great troubleshooter to Madrid.”
3 pages in-4 written in black ink on blue paper, with some margins skilfully reinforced.
