Autograph signed postcard addressed to Jean Schuster
Amsterdam 1958 | 13.9 x 8.9 cm | a postcard
 

Handwritten postcard signed by André Breton addressed to Jean Schuster, written in blue ballpoint pen on the back of a postcard reproducing a black and white photography of a Melanesian mask preserved at the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam and which André Breton designates under the highly significant qualifier “friend”, responsible for showing his “affection” to Jean Schuster.
“This grid pattern of canals and the tulip tiling leaves us in great indecision. [...] This country is decidedly very beautiful.” His wife Elisa Breton added a few lines of a Surrealist tone following the main text: “Elisa in Amsterdam comes from a gingerbread tin and a potential twisting from antiquarians.”
Jean Schuster (1929-1995) joined the Surrealist group in 1947. Close to Benjamin Péret and André Breton, he will become Breton's executor.
