Besançon, June 4, 1811. 2 pages, in-4°: “I cannot tell you enough, my friend, how much pleasure your work has given me. It is skillfully crafted, well-conceived, and possesses an elegance that is very rare these days. You have followed in the footsteps of Albani and Correggio; it is from your own circle that you have chosen your models... You can see that I am being objective in my criticism and that friendship does not cloud my judgment. When I see you, we will chat in my garden, your book in hand…”
