"My dear Tesse, I regret to learn that you came to see me twice during my absence from Paris. I am now back, and I am writing to tell you that I would be very happy to see you one of these mornings soon. Sunday, if you wish? Your little painting of Sappho is completely finished, and I think you will be pleased with it. Until next time, with affectionate regards, and believe me, your most devoted Gustave Moreau."
