DELACROIX, EUGÈNE. Autograph Letter Signed, "Eug Delacroix," to lithographer Pierre Joseph Challamel ("Monsieur Challamel"), in French, requesting that he inform him of who is to do the job of draughtsman in creating a lithograph of his own painting. 1 page, 8vo, with integral address leaf; folds. Np, 23 March no year
"Having no information to provide you in making a lithograph from my painting, it would be essential that the draftsman who is to be in charge of it has a strong connection with the painting. I would be obliged if you would let me know who you charge with this job. It could happen that I find that someone with great talent is nevertheless unsuitable in the circumstances."
