Anne Louise Germaine de Stael-Holstein (1766–1817), known as Madame de Stael, was a Swiss author who played an integral part in directing the literary tastes of Europeans at the turn of the 19th century. ALS in French, signed “M. de Stael,” one page, 4.5 x 5.5, no date. Handwritten letter sending her correspondent a ticket. In very good condition, with a small hole to the left edge, and irregular overall toning.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
