A.L.S., Claude Monet, two pages, 8vo, Embankment Gardens, London, 19th February 1900, to Gustave Geffroy ('Cher ami') in French, on the printed stationery of the Savoy Hotel. Monet informs his correspondent that a small single bedroom would cost seven shillings and a double bedroom fifteen shillings and continues 'Needless to say I will be delighted to see you rejuvenated and I make a wish for Clemenceau's recovery. I am grateful for his letter of recommendation; I haven't made use of it yet', further remarking 'I am working hard at the moment ('Je suis dans le coup de feu au travail') despite the terrible weather'. Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Monet. VG Gustave Geffroy (1855-1926) French Journalist & Art Critic, one of the earliest historians of the Impressionist Art movement and a friend of Monet. The present letter is written during Monet's time in London (making visits between 1899-1901) when he completed a series of paintings of the Palace of Westminster which depict the parliament buildings during different times of the day and weather conditions.
