Ce qui suit est le premier chapitre de la première lettre envoyée par edouard riou. -i am sending you today the portraits of the royal family of sardinia. Thank me, because in order to hold them, i had to perform a real feat. There are indeed some here in commerce, but, with the exception of the portrait of h. M. Victor emmanuel, none are similar. There are only portraits from life of the princes and princesses of the royal household, except the very rare paintings of the intimate apartments of the palace, only photographs taken for her majesty alone. It is in these photographs that his exc. Mr. Count de nigra, minister of the king's household, was kind enough to have it brought to my hotel that i executed these drawings, and to obtain them, it took, i will not say all the diplomacy of a classic winner, but all the gracious benevolence of a great italian lord, friend of the arts, for an artist, and undoubtedly also: sesame, open up. Finally, you have them!
ed riou. Date: 5 February 1859.
