Émile-Antoine BOURDELLE (1861-1929). L.A.S., Paris March 26, 1911 to his dear Spathy; 2 pages and a half in-8. He hopes to visit him soon in his "little Athens" and looks forward to his upcoming wedding; he praises his mistress (whom he will marry in 1918): "It was necessary that Mauricette Cleopatra Sevastos come to Paris to teach me that, in every beautiful Greek woman, worthy of her great country, lives the harmony of the Parthenon [...] My adoration for my dear Cleopatra is very reasoned, and I have hope for her and for me of all the happiness that human life can promise "... He will try to get along well with Astruc and encourages his correspondent: "You are gifted [...] Everything is in everything to be able to know to want"...
