RENOIR AUGUSTE (1841-1919).
L.A.S. "Renoir", Monday morning [15 March 1894], to Stéphane MALLARMÉ| 1 page in-8, envelope.
About his portrait of Mallarmé (Musée d'Orsay). "Dear Poet I wanted to talk to you about your portrait to tell you that I had not forgotten you but I have a toothache. For two days I have had a chill fever. As soon as this silly exhibition is over, we'll be more at ease. I would like to put my painting on before the face it makes. I don't dare because of Marx. I would like to be authorized by M. Roujon. But I don't have the time. Buffer"...
