Jean-Léon GÉRÔME (1824–1904), French painter and engraver. S - Lot 127
Jean-Léon GÉRÔME (1824–1904), French painter and engraver. Signed autograph letter, addressed to a “Dear Sir.” Paris, July 22, 1903. ½ page in-12; yellow paper with the printed address “65, Boulevard de Clichy” (slight crease marks where folded in four). The painter regrets that he cannot provide his correspondent with any information regarding “Mlle Bargue” and states that he was unaware that his colleague had a daughter. The painter in question must be Charles Bargue (1825–1883), and Gérôme adds: “He has been dead for quite some time now, and I have never heard of him since.”
