PISSARRO Camille (1831-1903)
L.A.S. "C. Pissarro", Paris 25 March 1887, to his son
Georges PISSARRO [known as MANZANA-PISSARRO]| 4 pages small in-8.
Beautiful letter to his sixteen-year-old son Georges.
He wanted to answer him the next day to "give him some details about the exhibition of the Indépendants which opens today", but his letter requires an immediate answer. First of all, he will try to send more money by money order: he could not foresee the resurgence of his wife Julie's illness, which he thought was on the way to recovery, "Lucien having assured me that she was better and that her eye was on the way to recovery [...As for drawing, the weather is going to be fine, I hope we will make up for lost time, in the meantime you could make maps of Europe and pay attention to the location of capitals and cities etc etc that will be very useful to you, [...] do that and above all with care". He formally opposes George's request to go to evening school: "I don't approve, but not at all", and he lists the reasons for this: he will not learn much more, and above all he risks finding himself "with a bunch of vicious, rude boys, who have nothing but bad examples to show you: you must guard against them like the plague. It is better to wait until I am back to resume our dictations as in the past. He must see the gallery owner Georges PETIT: "I will see if he has succeeded in something. As soon as I have a solution I will go to
Eragny. Lucien goes to see MIRBEAU today for illustrations".
