Letters sent to Simon Bussy and family, 1903-1928.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78297315

Eight letters (seven original and one copy, dating from 1903 to 1918) to Simon Bussy, a French painter. The letters attest to the long acquaintance between the two men and primarily reflect a dialogue between artists. Also one letter to Bussy's wife, Dorothy Strachey, and two to his daughter, Jane, dating to 1928; all of a social nature. A 1920 letter to Miss Deacon appears unrelated to the Bussys.

Matisse was born in 1869 to generations of weavers in Le Cateau-Cambrésis, a northern French town whose woolen mills constituted the main industry. He was raised in nearby Bohain, famous for its luxury fabrics.
