Description

8vo. 8 pp. on bifolia. Long and insightful letter to the journalist and music critic Charles Vincens, with advice in a conflict with the mutual friend, the banker and composer Alexis Rostand and a long characterization of Rostand. According to Morel, Rostand felt like he would have achieved more as an art critic and composer, could he have dedicated his life fully to these passions of his. A certain bitterness over these perceived failings must have led to the conflict with Vincens. - While Alexis Rostand (1844-1919) did not achieve his artistic goals, his nephew Edmond Rostand (1868-1918) would write one of the most famous plays in French literary history: "Cyrano de Bergerac". - With several small tears occasionally affecting individual letters and traces of former mounting.
