Eminent French author (1804–1876), born Amantine-Lucile-Aurore Dupin, better known by the masculine pen name she adopted early in her career. An early feminist, she also earned a footnote in musical history as the longtime romantic companion of pianist/composer Frédéric Chopin. ALS in French, one page, 5.25 x 8.25, September 20, 1850. Letter to novelist and feminist Fanny Lewald. In part (translated): “I’m very sorry I didn’t get your letter in Paris…I find your fine letter here and I must lose hope of seeing you because letters from my sister…ask me to be with her in the south…I thank you for your kindness towards me…I hope that I will be more fortunate if you return to Paris and I can be there at the same time.” In fine condition, with a few light creases and a couple trivial spots. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Sand’s hand. Desirable correspondence from one 19th century feminist to another!
