CHAPLIN CHARLES JOSHUA: (1825-1891) French painter and printmaker, remembered for his elegant portraits of young women. A.L.S., Ch. Chaplin, four pages, small 8vo, Arromanches pres Bayeux, to Beugruet, in French. Chaplin informs his correspondent that he will return to Jouy in the first half of September, at which time he will give him the Russian watercolour that they are impatiently waiting for, continuing 'Je ne me baigne pas du tout et travaille tous les jours pas tres fier de ce que je fais et un peu honteux je n'ai d'excuse que l'oisivite et le besoin de payer une nouvelle maison mitoyenne
..Je vous conterai cela a mon retours - en vous montrant mes horreurs' (Translation: 'I don't bathe at all and work every day, not very proud of what I do and a little ashamed, I have no excuse but idleness and the need to pay for a new terraced house
..I will tell you about it on my return - showing you my horrors'). VG
