Born in Cyprus, Paul Pétridès (1901.1993) settled in France in 1920 and quickly became an influential art dealer, notably with Maurice Utrillo. He obtained French nationality on September 19, 1943.
We enclose a letter from Georges Bonnet, former minister, also supporting Pétridès' request for naturalization.
