TALMA Madame (Charlotte Vanhove, known as... - Lot 197 - Varenne Enchères
TALMA Madame (Charlotte Vanhove, known as Caroline) [The Hague, 1771 - Paris, 1860], French actress and wife of François-Joseph Talma. Autograph letter signed " Caroline ". 3 pages in-8°. "Fénelon wrote jokingly to Me de Lavale: One does not always have a great leisure and a happy subject to write in sublime style, but these are not my excuses, I have leisure and even a beautiful subject: the fears that your departure caused me during the dark night, the black forebodings, then the retrad of your letter, all that would provide a woman more spiritual than me with charming things [...I limit myself to telling you that I no longer want you to leave in the evening, and so late, it is a bad chance to run: something may break in the carriage and leave you in the roads without help, left to those who would like to take advantage of the misfortune [...] It is not unpleasant for you to leave early in the morning, it must be absolutely appropriate for your business, so be well warned, and do not give any more cause for concern in the future.
