Charles-Augustin SAINTE-BEUVE (1804-1869, literary critic and writer for the Académie française) / Autograph letter signed, 1 p in-8, May 25, 1856 to a Lady: he hasn't forgotten her, but he's just been busy for 15 days with the jury, which has delayed him altogether, and he promises that in the next fine weather he'll go and greet her "under the beautiful trees of Saint-Cloud, before which those of the Luxembourg bow", "it would be a feast and a vacation for me, but the sun must lend itself to it, and also that I don't feel too black of temper, which happens to me quite frequently and which must be hidden" / Enclosed: his business card (a "porcelain" card, lithographed on glossy paper) with a few words of thanks signed with his initials.
