AUTOGRAPHIC LETTER SIGNED addressed to the art dealer and collector Paul Tesse:
"My dear Tesse,
I apologise a thousand times over for any inconvenience I may have inadvertently caused you.
Faced with the necessity of exhibiting only three paintings, I felt I had to withdraw for reasons I'll tell you about later.
Thank you for your great kindness, which I hope will never again be put to such an annoying and useless test.
Gustave Moreau.
Monday 10 February 1868
T.S.V.P.
PS: I understand that you were kind enough to bring the little Calvaire from Switzerland, so I absolutely must pay the shipping costs."
