TOULOUSE-LAUTREC HENRI DE (1864-1901).
L.A.S. "yours H.", [Paris November 1893], to HER MOTHER, the Countess Adèle de TOULOUSE-LAUTREC| 3 pages in-8 (slight cracks).
On his invention of the crachin lithograph, and the founding of the newspaper L'Escarmouche. "My dear Mother, I am very happy with your last letter which proves that we did well not to protest. I am very busy and printing a lot. - I have just invented a new process which can bring me quite a lot of money. Only I have to do everything myself... My experiments are going well. We have just founded a newspaper. Finally you see that everything is going well. Only the trouble of moving in and out is not a black but grey spot on my horizon. Continue not to speak of all this to anyone and I embrace you"...
