G.” “Miss, it is my little messenger who is delivering this short note to you, informing you of my exact arrival time for lunch at 10:15 a.m. I AM CONTINUING TO WORK ON MY STUDY. Please accept, Mademoiselle, my warmest regards...” Nestled in the heart of nature in the Oise Valley, Presles was well known to Camille Corot, who spent four years there as a nursemaid and returned several times, drawn by his childhood memories. He painted landscapes there in 1854, staying with his friend Guillaume. Provenance: “YB” stamp.
