FOUJITA (Tsuguharu, known as Léonard). Autographed card addressed to Mrs. M. Bourgeois. “Villiers-Le-Bâele via Gif / Yvette” [Villiers-le-Bel in Essonne], October 9, 1966. 1/2 p. in-12 with address. “My dear little Gazou, thank you, thank you—your little letter gave me such great pleasure while I was working on the fresco in my chapel. Now I rest not far from you, very happy to know that your family is so happy and that you are living as the mother of your dear children and little chicks. I remember those joyful times well; I regret nothing, just like the song says. Thank you for the beautiful Saint-Léonard medal—you’re truly kind. I send you a big hug, and my wife joins me in doing so...” On the back, a reproduction of his painting *The Virgin and Child*, donated in 1959 to Reims Cathedral on the occasion of his baptism following his conversion to Catholicism.
