Sacha Guitry – The Line of Cambronne – Plon, Paris, 1938

Comedy in one act and verse by Sacha Guitry, illustrated in color by Guy Arnoux. Cover and illustrations by the artist.

Remarkable copy by the presence of an original aquarelle drawing, created and signed by Guy Arnoux on the endpaper. This drawing is accompanied by a handwritten dedication from the illustrator to François Piétri, with the inscription « with all the wishes of his friend Guy Arnoux ».

This dedication constitutes a particularly interesting provenance element. François Piétri (1882-1966) was a French political and diplomatic figure.
