190173700Nice Villa Ibrahim chemin des Baumettes Nice 1901. Fine. Nice Villa Ibrahim chemin des Baumettes Nice 8 Février 1901 12.50 x 17.60 cm une feuille Friendly autograph letter signed by Octave Mirbeau addressed to the playwright and founder of the Revue Blanche Alfred Natanson some time after his marriage. 12 lines in black ink on a folded sheet mourning paper with black border watermarked ""JDL & cie"" envelope included. ""Je vous envoie à votre femme et à vous tous nos vux affectueux et je voudrais pouvoir chanter en votre honneur un bel épithalame. Le malheur est que je ne suis pas poète. Mais nous somme vos amis et nous vous embrassons de tout notre cur. Nous avions espéré que vous viendriez passer quelques jours à Cannes et nous nous faisions une fête de vous avoir ici. Misia nous dit que vous avez renoncé à ce voyage. Comme c'est ennuyeux ! ."". ""I send to your wife and to you all our affectionate wishes and I would like to be able to sing a beautiful epithalamium in your honor. The misfortune is that I am not a poet. But we are your friends and we embrace you with all our heart. We had hoped that you would come to spend a few days in Cannes and we were looking forward to having you here. Misia tells us that you have given up this trip. How annoying! ."". Mirbeau was particularly close to the Revue Blanche group since its launch in Paris in 1891. But it was from the Dreyfus affair that his intimate and lasting friendship with the Natanson brothers Thadée Alexandre and Alfred was strengthened. After aesthetic disagreements about Art Nouveau and the Nabis Mirbeau finally reunited with Thadée around 1900 in a now common inclination for the young Nabis painters of the Revue Blanche Bonnard Vallotton and Vuillard. The Revue Blanche played an essential role in France as confirmed by historian Paul-Henri Bourrelier: ""Most of the most prominent writers painters musicians politicians intellectuals of the late 19th and early 20th centuries collaborated with it or were associated with it. Created financed and directed by the three Natanson brothers young Polish Jews with the enthusiastic complicity of their classmates from the Condorcet lycée La Revue blanche quickly became a place of debate on all subjects that stirred France. It led political battles under the impulse of anarchists like Fénéon Mirbeau; socialists such as Blum G. Moch Péguy; Dreyfusards and founders of the League of Human Rights like Reinach and Pressensé."" unknown

"C'est une joie délicieuse quand on a le cur tourmenté de savoir qu'on a des amis comme vous."" Autograph letter signed by Octave Mirbeau addressed to Alfred Natanson

190173686s. l. cachet de Seine-et-Marne 1901. Fine. s. l. cachet de Seine-et-Marne 15 Septembre 1901 12.50 x 17.60 cm une feuille Moving autograph letter signed by Octave Mirbeau addressed to the playwright and founder of the Revue Blanche Alfred Natanson. 15 lines in black ink on a folded sheet mourning paper with black border watermarked ""JDL & cie"" envelope attached. ""Thank you for your kind letter. I already knew from Alexandre Natanson how worried you had been about my wife's condition. It is a delicious joy when one's heart is tormented to know that one has friends like you like all of you the good people of the Relai. Please tell your wife that mine was very touched by her friendship. And embrace everyone with effusion. Also tell Olga Alexandre Natanson's wife and Misia Thadée's wife that we love them tenderly and Alexandre that he is a charming friend."" Long postscript on the poor health of his wife the former actress Alice Régnault: ""Yesterday was not a good day and the wound on her arm presented a nasty appearance. Today it is a little better. But it is something to watch very closely. Movements are made a little more easily but she still suffers extremely at night at the slightest play of the muscles"". Mirbeau had been particularly close to the Revue Blanche group since its launch in Paris in 1891. But it was during the Dreyfus affair that his intimate and lasting friendship with the Natanson brothers Thadée Alexandre and Alfred was strengthened. After aesthetic disagreements over Art Nouveau and the Nabis Mirbeau finally reunited with Thadée around 1900 in a now shared inclination for the young Nabis painters of the Revue Blanche Bonnard Vallotton and Vuillard. The ""Relai"" corresponds to a former coaching inn in Villeneuve-sur-Yonne purchased by Thadée Natanson in 1897 which became a destination for all their writer and artist friends. One could encounter the Nabis painters Vuillard Vallotton Bonnard or Roussel as well as Toulouse-Lautrec. The Revue Blanche played an essential role in France as historian Paul-Henri Bourrelier confirms: ""Most of the most prominent writers painters musicians politicians intellectuals of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries collaborated with it or were associated with it. Created financed and directed by the three Natanson brothers young Polish Jews with the enthusiastic complicity of their fellow students from the Condorcet lycée La Revue blanche quickly became a place of debate on all the subjects that stirred France. It led political battles under the impetus of anarchists like Fénéon Mirbeau; socialists such as Blum G.

Thadée a dû vous dire souvent quelle amitié profonde j'ai pour vous. Peut-être ne vous l'ai-je pas exprimée telle que je la sens mais je la sens fortement et je voudrais bien que vous la sentiez aussi un peu. C'est un gros chagrin que de ne plus être aimé de ceux qu'on aime véritablement. Vous allez partir ; et vous faîtes bien de quitter cette maison où durant plus de six mois vous avez assisté à l'horrible agonie de votre pauvre père. Tâchez de travailler pour notre joie à tous. et revenez avec une belle uvre."" ""My dear Fred I have not written to you; but you know well that there is not the slightest indifference in my heart. Thadée must have told you how much we shared your grief. Thadée must have told you often what deep friendship I have for you. Perhaps I have not expressed it to you as I feel it but I feel it strongly and I would very much like you to feel it too a little. It is a great sorrow to no longer be loved by those one truly loves. You are going to leave; and you do well to quit this house where for more than six months you witnessed the horrible agony of your poor father. Try to work for all our joy. and return with a beautiful work."". Mirbeau was particularly close to the group of the Revue Blanche since its launch in Paris in 1891.
