Description
HATTO, Marguerite Jeanne Frère, known as Jeanne (1879
–1958), French mezzo-soprano.
Approximately 26 signed autograph letters, addressed to the painter
Marguerite Cornillac, known as MALECK (1862–1952). Approximately
62 pages, folio or octavo. 1917 to 1919. Black or turquoise ink.
A long, intense and effervescent correspondence between two close
friends: her operas, her travels, her anecdotes, the armistice, their
stays and mutual friends, the constant parties, her husband
the racing driver Louis Renault, founder of the
Renault industrial empire, and in particular the soirées at his home, etc.
Lively letters imbued with intelligence, through which one senses
the high-flying lifestyle of the Roaring Twenties of a society singer who was
highly prominent.
