JONGKIND Johan Barthold [Lattrop, 1819 - Grenoble, 1891], Dutch painter. Autograph letter signed addressed to Mr. Brame. Paris, November 16, 1869; 3 pages in-8°. Hole due to the opening of the letter, no missing words. "At the time of your 1st visit I told you that I had - before you - several paintings to do now. This morning I showed you a painting so I give you the preference if it suits you at 800 francs. I will bring it to you in a few days, since I still have a few touches to do. As for the watercolors my position is different, for years I have been asked for them even at the rate of 200 francs and I can't make any. And the watercolors that I have at home, these are my studies after nature so I constantly need to make my paintings ".
