Signed autograph letter from a page by Louis Pons, to his friend the art critic Georges Raillard, specialist in the works of Joan Miro and Antoni Tapies, about a work on Monticelli that he recently received from a their mutual friend and for whom Georges Raillard wrote the text.
On the attached envelope which he recomposed in his fanciful and ornithological manner, Louis Pons drew, in black ink, on the front and on the back, two curious beasts: a magpie in a tail coat and a rat of which just the head and the tail emerge from the envelope, the place of its body being crossed by a nail.
Finally, on the sidelines of the handwritten letter, Louis Pons drew a character of human appearance with simian features.
