Double autograph letter signed by Victor Segalen addressed to Emile Mignard. Four pages written in black ink on a double sheet. Transverse folds inherent to mailing, a tiny tear without loss of text at the fold of the first sheet.
Emile Mignard (1878-1966), also a doctor from Brest, was one of Segalen's closest childhood friends whom he met at the Jesuit college Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours in Brest. The writer maintained with this comrade an abundant and very regular correspondence in which he described with humor and intimacy his daily life in the four corners of the globe. It was at Mignard's wedding, on February 15, 1905, that Segalen met his wife, Yvonne Hébert.
