Léopold FLAMENG, French engraver, born in Brussels in 1831, died in Courgent near Mantes in 1911. Acad. of Fine Arts. Autograph letter signed La Tournelle, SEPTEUIL (78), Seine et Oise 20 June 1879. (to Aimé GIRON). "My dear friend. Receive our warmest thanks for your warm and sincere congratulations. I am the happiest of men being the happiest of fathers. Our luck is incomparable, at 22 years old, to win such a success is unheard of. It is the life opening with two wings, the life of laughter and fortune. What charms me the most is the calm of the triumpher. He receives these things without drunkenness, sees with a clear eye the road that remains to be traveled, measures it with discernment, knows the extent of his strength and says to himself, it is now that the game becomes serious. I have a strong stomach, a will that equals it. So we will eventually overcome the obstacles. It is with talent that one must establish oneself in the sun. François and his mother send you their best regards..." -
