Victor SEGALEN

Carte postale autographe signée envoyée depuis Nouméa et adressée à Emile Mignard

Nouméa 15 juin 1904, 14x9cm, une carte postale.


War dance. Handwritten signed postcard sent from Nouméa and addressed to Émile Mignard: "...on demand, naturally"
Nouméa 15 June 1904 | 14 x 9 cm | one postcard
 

Handwritten signed postcard from Victor Segalen, sent from Nouméa and addressed to Émile Mignard. A few lines written in black ink below the black and white photographic reproduction of a war dance scene in the New Hebrides, handwritten address on the verso. Some minor stains.
With humor, Segalen completes the caption of this post card: “[War dance] ...on demand, naturally. Affectionately, Victor Segalen Nouméa 15 June 1904”.
 
In 1904, Segalen took advantage of a short stay in Nouméa to continue the writing of Immémoriaux, a novel denouncing the agony of the Maori civilization decimated by the European presence, which was published under the pseudonym Max-Anély in 1907.
