réf. 21925From Brockwood Park Bramdean Hampshire and Ojai California. Between 1978 and 2008. A total of twenty-eight items of correspondence comprising: nineteen Autograph Letters Signed two on the backs of cards two Typed Letters Signed and seven Autograph Cards Signed. In good condition. All signed 'Mary' and the large part addressed to 'Christopher' with a few to 'Kit' and one to 'Dear Phyl i.e. Fry's wife Phyllis dear Christopher'. The correspondence indicates a deep affection and long-standing intimacy. In 1987 she transcribes entries from her diary of 1958 regarding dinners in Rome between the Frys and Zimbalists while Fry was working on the script of the film 'Ben Hur' which Sam Zimbalist produced commenting: 'it is startling to find how these pale ink lines evoke us then – almost 20 sic years ago'. Later in the letter she states: 'I wish I could have seen the tv broadcast of The Lady and hope you have a video recording of it. It is like wanting to again hear the English language rising and thundering like winter surf and pure as a Bach prelude. Since Christopher Fry this does not happen these days.' In 1997 she writes: 'So many things hovered in my head all night some of them reaching back to Italian summer days when you and Phyl and Sam and I were together. An unbroken line began then for me of feeling whenever I was with Phyl and you that all was well with the world. That has continued ever since – something wondrously enduring.' And in 2000 she tells him that hearing his news 'is a sort of centre of gravity'. Topics include: her pleasure in his messages and calls texts he has sent her 'What you have said about death and love touches so many things I feel profoundly and the eloquence is no less than the truth.' her admiration for his work 'Language is such a root of human understanding. Other writers seem to be stuttering alongside the eloquence of your plays. Your language unfolds in breadth in splendour a music of the mind. It is as if you are creating language of a different order new and yet with its original and intrinsic meaning freed.' her travels her health in 1988: 'I seem to be hobbling about with little grace but ground-covering success' the taking of vitamins a centenarian's death. In 1999 she comments on a list of 'Krishnamurti books' she is sending him concluding by noting that 'Krishnamurti's Notebook' is 'one that is not personal for a time a daily recording of consciousness. In it he notes the curious physical pain he called “the process”. It had begun with extreme severity in 1922 after a spiritual experience that altered his life and continued to manifest from time to time with differing intensity. He did not consider it as physical illness but as having to do with perceptive ability. He never took anything to mitigate or affect it and seldom spoke of it.' From Brockwood Park, Bramdean, Hampshire, and Ojai, California. Between 1978 and 2008. unknown

réf. 25226Note dated 16 May 1999. Some of the photographs taken in 'France May 1999' for Italian Vogue. Bündchen’s career began in London in 1998. Since 2001 she has been one of the highest-paid fashion models in the world. In 2007 Forbes listed her as the sixteenth-richest woman in the entertainment industry. In 2019 Claudia Schiffer described her as the last of the supermodels. Comte’s fashion and portrait photography have appeared in a wide range of publications primarily Italian Vogue. In 2000 he was named Photographer of the year by PHOTO magazine. The present collection consists of sixty-three photographs of Bündchen five in colour and fifty-eight in black and white evidently taken by Comte laid down with a covering note to him from her on twenty-one pages over eleven leaves of foolscap 8vo extracted from an album. In good condition lightly aged. Covering the whole of the first page is the Autograph Note Signed by ‘Gisele Bündchen’ 16 may 1999 with a curl at the end of the signature enclosing a childish smiling face. At top right is a very simple drawing of a flower. The note is in a childish hand and is headed ‘Michel’ and reads ‘Obrigada por tudo. Tive um timpo moravilhoso. sic Um muito carinho / Gisele Bündchen / 16-05-99’. On the reverse of the leaf are three colour photographs variations of the same scene of Bündchen posing in front of a crowd of tourists the pages that follow carry similar triplets or quartets of photographs taken at the same time. The 31 photographs on the first ten pages arranged in ten groups appear to come from the same outdoor shoot with Bündchen striking a pose while surrounded by members of the public. The two pages that follow carry five associated images of Bündchen in a bikini striding across a rocky beach. These are followed by another five over two pages this time showing Bündchen’s head and shoulders as she drapes what looks like a mink stole over her head. There are also eight images in two groups of Bündchen screaming and a group of four that show her smoking a cigarette while adorned in a somewhat garish necklace and earings. The latter group is mounted on a leaf captioned ‘ “Gisele im Cannes” Italian. Vogue / France May’. Mounted on the twenty-second page of the eleven leaves is what appears to be an unrelated item: a letter in German also written in a childish hand in felt-tip pen with large illegible signature something like ‘Mamti Rigis’ dated from Paris 19 may 1999. It reads: ‘Merci Michel / Das war bis jetzt das beste Fotoshooting das ich bisher machen konnte! Sehr erfischend mit super Ideen! Ich hoffe auf ein baldiges wiedersehen: vielleicht mit Pferden. / Paris. 19. Mai ’99’. Note dated 16 May 1999. Some of the photographs taken in 'France, May [1999]' for Italian Vogue. unknown
