637 - Camille MAUCLAIR, Poet, Art Historian, Writer, Literary Critic (1872–1945). Letter from A.S. to SAINT-LEU-LA-FORÊT (Val d’Oise), Seine-et-Oise (circa 1940). 4 pages, in-8°: “Sir, I have received your letter of the 20th. It was not at the start of the war, but long before that, that I asked you to suspend your mailings…; I will not publish any books before the end of the war, as my works are purely artistic in nature and would have no reason to be published during such a period. You tell me that you have continued to compile articles about me. I would feel uncomfortable accepting them for free, and besides, it would be impossible for me to pay for them, as I am among those for whom life is currently very difficult—all my art-related commissions have been abruptly canceled, and my circumstances compel me to be as frugal as possible... When circumstances allow, I will be the first to ask for your help again. Camille MAUCLAIR.”
