Description

ALS in French, signed “Rene,” one page on a 5.5 x 4 postcard depicting a beach scene, April 28, 1962. Untranslated handwritten letter to his cousin, "Alise Gonne Magritte," desirably addressed in Magritte's own hand, incorporating his surname. Also signed by Magritte's wife, "Georgette." In fine condition. A desirable pairing of autographs of this mythical couple—Georgette was Rene Magritte's model and muse, appearing in several of his artworks. They even became the subject of a 1983 Paul Simon song, 'Rene and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog after the War.'
