French painter noted for his brightly colored scenes of racing and the seaside and for the panel La Fée Électricité (1937). ALS in French, signed “R. Dufy,” on 3.75 x 2.25 imprinted calling card, no date. In full: “My dear Esaudit, I present to you my friend Douvail from the Comedie Francais, for who I request a good welcome and ‘prix d’artist.” In fine condition, with mild edge toning and a pencilled list on the reverse, perhaps Dufy’s! R&R COA.
