CASSATT (Mary). Autograph letter signed to Achille Segard. Villa Angeletto in Grasse, "December 31st" [1912]. 3 pp. 1/2 in-12, mourning border. "I HAVE JUST READ YOUR ARTICLE ON DEGAS [in L'Echo de Paris], it was given to me by M. Durand-Ruel [the art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel, close to the Impressionists], he is visiting Renoir to recover from the fatigue of the Rouart sale [the first two parts of the sale of the Rouart collection took place from December 9 to 18, 1912, with Paul Durand Ruel as expert]. I read your article with great interest. Degas was never awarded the Prix de Rome, and the very idea would make him jump... I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR TO SAY THAT WOMEN... DIDN'T LIKE HIS ART. The first Degas to go to America was bought by a young girl, and I know of others, and at the sale several women were among the buyers. We would have liked to have been, only the prices were so much higher than we supposed they would be. A friend left a price of 75,000 fcs for Les Modistes and didn't get it... Here we've had a lot of sun, but it's taken me a while to acclimatize and I haven't gone back to work yet..." The Impressionist painter Mary Cassatt was one of the few to find favor in the critical eyes of Edgar Degas: the two artists struck up a friendship that was not without its storms, due to their strong characters. In May 1913, writer and art and literature critic Achille Segard published the first-ever study of Mary Cassatt: Un Peintre des enfants et des mères (A Painter of Children and Mothers), published by Ollendorff.
