Letter, 1878 Nov. 13, Palace Gate [London], to Emile Bergerat, [n.p.]

Compliments Bergerat on his book "Chefs-d'oeuvre d'art" [i.e., Les chef-d'oeuvres d'art à l'exposition universelle, 1878 (Paris: L. Baschet, 1878)], especially the quality of the publication. Thanks him for "kindly criticism" and his "touching reference to my great loss" [i.e., the death of his son, George], and invites Bergerat to visit him in London.

2 p. on 1 leaf. Holograph signed.
