TOULOUSE-LAUTREC HENRI DE: (1864-1901) French Painter and Illustrator. Rare A.L.S., H. de Toulouse Lautrec, two pages, 8vo, n.p., 2nd June 1893, to 'Honoured Sir' (apparently the French actor Benoit-Constant Coquelin), in French. The artist sends his correspondent the addresses of a few friends of his own and Bourges', 'who would be happy to enhance by their presence the brilliance of your reputation.' In concluding he states that he hopes he will not arrive too late. Given Toulouse-Lautrec's early death at the age of 36, his letters are extremely rare - particularly those bearing a full signature.
