Du reste, si ces messieurs sont dans l´attention d´en faire l´exposition je m´en entendrais avec eux a leur retour, d´autant qu´il ne me sera guerre possible de vous les livrer avant le......de janvier, il n´y a donc pas presse´ (Translation: ´Here are the measurements of the six paintings of Vetheuil which I have to deliver to you, there are four which measure 92 by 89 and two which measure 92 by 81, as for the titles there is none since the 6 paintings represent 6 sights of Vetheuil.

J´espere que vous etes tous bien et que bientot on pourra se revoir. Je suis alle a Paris il y a quelques jours et j´ai passe un moment avec Renoir et votre cousin assure que Paris est donc lugubre surtout quand la nuit vient. On dit cependant que chaque jour la vie reprend. Ici nous allons bien et tout est calme, seule la vue des blesses jete un terrible.......Nous avons de bonnes nouvelles de ceux des notres qui sont partis. Michel va passer bientot parti la revision et surement partira a sa grande joie mais quel surcroit d´angoisse pour moi. Madame Jean Monet se joint a moi pour envoyer a ces dames notre meilleur souvenir´ (Translation: ´Thank you to these ladies and to you for your kind words, which I really appreciate. I hope you are all well and that we can meet up again soon. I went to Paris a few days ago and spent some time with Renoir and your cousin assures me that Paris is gloomy, especially when night comes. They say, however, that every day life picks up again. Here we are well and all is calm, only the sight of the wounded throws a terrible gloom.......We have good news of those of ours who have left. Michel will soon go for his check-up and will certainly leave, which will be a great joy for him, but what extra anguish for me. Madame Jean Monet joins me in sending these ladies our best wishes´)(iii) A.L.S., Claude Monet, four pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 9th August 1917, to ´Cher ami´, in bold pencil.

Je vous assure que je suis tres malheureux et me prive du grand plaisir de vous aller voir. Dites le bien a votre frere mais a mon age il ne m´est pas permis de prendre un repos. Qui sait si l´an prochain ma sante me permettra de continuer a peindre dehors. Excusez-moi et m´en voulez pas Blanche et moi nous nous faisons une joie de ce voyage pres de vous. Blanche remercie Madame Mathilde et son affectueuse lettre´ (Translation: ´Alas, you are going to curse me I am obliged to break my promises curse me and pity me too because I have never had such a bad working season because the weather is so changeable and I must try to get through the work I have started by fighting to the end in the hope of better weather. I assure you that I am very unhappy and am depriving myself of the great pleasure of going to see you. Tell your brother well, but at my age I am not allowed to rest. Who knows if next year my health will allow me to continue painting outside. Excuse me and don't blame me, Blanche and I are looking forward to this trip to see you. Blanche thanks Madame Mathilde for her affectionate letter´).(iv) A.L.S., Claude Monet, three pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 6th December 1917, to ´Cher ami´, in bold pencil. The artist writes, in part, ´Deux mots en hate pour vous remercier de l´envoi de bobines recues ce matin et que j´envoie aussitot a Michel reparti depuis quelques jours. Merci pour lui et pour moi. Je voudrais moi aussi avoir le plaisir de vous aller voir mais je ne sais vraiment pas quand cela me sera possible vue la rarete serieuse cette fois de l´essence et craignant toujours les attentes dans les gares. Songez que je vieilli et qu´il me faut prendre des precautions. Alors quand se verra-t-on. Je ne sais pas, tout cela est bien ennuyeux. Mais il ne faut pas se plaindre quand il y a tant de malheureux.......Vous serez bien aimable de me prevenir lorsque les pastels seront prets´ (v) A.L.S., Claude Monet, three pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 12th April 1918, to ´Cher ami´, in bold pencil. Monet writes at a time of melancholy, when he became withdrawn and his output decreased, not least due to the problems with his eyesight, in part, ´Toutes mes excuses de ne vous avoir pas remercie aussitot de votre envoi de cigarettes mais elles sont arrivees ainsi que votre lettre dans un moment de grand et complet decouragement par consequent bon a rien ne pensant qu´a la destruction de mes grandes machines si mauvaises. Enfin et ayant passe des jours noirs de veritables souffrances et ne pensant qu´a la fin. C´est idiot mais je ne puis me maitriser dans ces moments, voila donc mon excuse, merci. Je les ferai vernir avant. J´ai charge quelqu´un de se rendre a l´adresse indiquee.
