Paul CLAUDEL. L.A.S., [Paris] April 14, 1949, to Aimé Clariond, of the Comédie-Française; 1 page in-8 at his address 11, Boulevard Lannes, XVIe, envelope. The day after the April 13, 1949 revival of Le Soulier de satin at the Comédie-Française (Clariond played the role of Camille). "What can I say? Yes, what can I say about Clariond in this terrible role, which is the pivot of the play, other than that he has climbed the supreme peaks of the soul, in horror and the sublime? I shudder to think what will become of the play when you are no longer there to support it... [...] And that organ with its unforgettable timbre, which nature has given you!" Enclosed is the program for the Paul Claudel evening at Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône on January 14, 1967, with the premiere of Le Ravissement de Scapin.
