A letter comes with this drawing, written to the artist’s doctor and dated from February 5th 1882. It translates so : »My dear doctor, I have waited until February to send you this package, so that the railroad would be less busy and it wouldn’t get lost. Anyway, it now comes to you directly from the hands of a friend. All my compliments and thanks again for the care you have given me. E. Isabey »
