Description

Gabriele d’Annunzio

ALS in Italian, three pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.5 x 7, no date but postmarked February 20, 1895. Letter to Anna Schiff-Levi about 'Convito,' a literary and artistic magazine that d’Annunzio had recently co-founded, in part (translated): “Have you received the first book of the Convito? Does not it seem magnificent?…It seems to me that the book has an irresistible look.” Toning and show-through from wax mounting remnants to the reverse (partially affecting last name of the signature), and slight mirroring of ink, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in d’Annunzio’s hand. The expensively printed journal was first published in January of 1895, and remained in publication until 1907. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
