ALS in French, signed "H. Matisse," one page, 8.25 x 10.5, no date. In full (translated): "I am asking the TR. Mother Gille to let the chapel be visited for a short time at 11 o'clock (necessary for ornamental tiling in Mons-Claude Roy-writer and free man and his family). Thanks and homage." In fine condition, with light creasing along the right edge. Especially interesting content considering Matisse's famous work on the Chapelle du Rosaire de Vence in France, which is considered one of the great religious structures of the 20th century.
