CHAMPFLEURY (Jules Husson dit, Laon 1821-1889, writer, initiator of the Ecole Réaliste, art historian and director of the Manufacture de Sèvres) / Autograph letter signed, 1 p in-8, Manufacture de Sèvres letterhead, May 2, 1882, [to the woman of letters Juliette Adam]: "Here is the word of your admirer, not of the orchestra but in the orchestra. And if he had seen you last night at supper! From my corner I looked at you as best I could - a very successful fusion of the figures of Germain Pilon and Coustou, the distinction of the XVIth century with a touch of the XVIIIth. If my novel had only given me this charming impression, I'd consider myself over-rewarded".
