Swiss-born French Art Nouveau painter and printmaker (1859–1923). ALS in French, signed “Steinlen,” one page both sides, 4.5 x 7, August 26, 1898. Steinlen writes painter and photographer Georges Haquette. In part (translated): “I don’t think I can put it off any longer, my dear Mr. Haquette—for Mariani—for a great many others I must have my photo taken and for that who can do better than you, the man designated. I’ll be [at your studio] tomorrow at 9. Madame Steinlen…will follow me 2 or 3 days later.” A central horizontal and vertical fold, scattered staining, and uniform toning, otherwise fine condition. Haquette's ‘Album Mariani’ appeared in 1899. It contained photographs of prominent people and their testimonials for Angelo Marian's cocaine-laced wine.
