Item 44 - Postcard from Félix Gicquel to R. C. Trevelyan

1 postcard with black and white photograph of 'Un Coin de [corner of] Ste-Barbe, St-Jean-de-Luz, Côte Basque.

Sent to Trevelyan at the Shiffolds, forwarded to him c/o Mr Hunt, 18 Dorset Square, Baker St, W. - Has come to this province for the first time and it is very interesting for its character, customs, language, history, sea, mountains and inhabitants; everything is joyful and lively like the sun. They play Basque pelota, which is a pastime of elegance and the players are marvellous to see; they dance the fandango, which is very picturesque when performed in the public square of a little village. Is holidaying with his sister and Magde Greslé, staying with Magde's mother. All best wishes to Trevelyan, his wife, and child.
