(Giacomo, 1858-1924, Italian Composer of ‘Tosca’ and ‘Bohème’)
Fine Autograph Letter Signed (with initial ‘P’) in Italian with translation on a postcard, to Madame Margit VÉSZI
(1885-1961, Hungarian Writer, Painter and Graphic Artist, best known for Hotel Imperial) saying “Of Liliom, nothing. It's good work but I have the infamous princess who grips me. And I treat her badly by neglecting her. All finished ! Sic transit. Goodbye sweet Margit. When are you coming here? Dearest Margit, I did nothing during summer. In August, I travelled by car : Germany and Holland. Now I'm starting to become reasonable. And whatever I do, I'm doing little by little. I'm not in a hurry. I'm not going to Budapest, I think I'll go to Clausetti. Now I should make an escapade to Paris for Schicchi at the opéra comique. In mid-November I will go to Cisterna near Rome. Then Terracina hunting for a month and so on and what if it lasted a long time!...”, 2 sides postcard with autograph address on the verso, Viareggio, 20th October
