EXTREMELY RARE, PIERRE-ANTOINE LEBRUN `AUTOGRAPHED 4 PAGE POEM FROM 19TH CENTURY FRENCH- $10K APPRAISAL VALUE!
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Extremely rare, one of a kind, 19th century hand-written and signed poem draft from Pierre-Antoine Lebrun. Lebrun was born in Paris. An Ode à la grande armée, mistaken at the time for the work of Ecouchard Lebrun, attracted Napoleon's attention, and secured for the author a pension of 1200 francs. Lebrun's plays, once famous, are now forgotten. They are: Ulysse (1814), Marie Stuart (1820), which obtained a great success, and Le Cid d'Andalousie (1825).
Lebrun visited Greece in 1820, and on his return to Paris he published in 1822 an ode on the death of Napoleon, which cost him his pension. In 1825 he was the guest of Sir Walter Scott at Abbotsford. The coronation of Charles X in that year inspired the verses entitled La Vallée de Champrosay, which have, perhaps, done more to secure his fame than his more ambitious attempts.
In 1828 appeared his most important poem, Le Voyage en Grèce, and in the same year he was elected to the Academy. This letter is a hand-written poem draft from Le Voyage en Grèce, which talks about his trip in Greece and some of his thoughts on the scenery along the way.
