rif. 012490Révérend Père Augustin Colombel (1833-1905), missionnaire jésuite en Chine, père de l'astronomie moderne en Chine à qui on doit la construction de l'observatoire de Shanghai. L.A.S., Shanghai, 30 octobre 1890, 3p 1/4 in-8. A sa soeur Marie-Thérèse Colombel (1839-1912), baronne Richerand : « Ma bien chère sour, Je viens te demander une bonne ouvre, je te prie d'y mettre tout ton cour. Nous avons ici pour consul général Mr Wagner. Ce bon monsieur nous a rendu bien des services, il a souvent mis toute son autorité et ses meilleurs soins au règlement de nos affaires et le Bon Dieu y a ajouté quelquefois souvent le succès. Nous lui devons donc de la reconnaissance. De plus Mr Wagner est tout spécialement bon pour moi. Je suis souvent intermédiaire entre lui et monseigneur, et j'ai moi-même bien des rapports avec lui pour les affaires de mes paroissiens. Et en tout cela j'ai trouvé chez Mr Wagner la plus grand bienveillance. Or Mr Wagner a ici même une nombreuse famille. Sa femme est prise d'une maladie du fois et elle est obligée de fuir nos climats. Elle va partir samedi prochain par la malle pour Paris où elle consultera les médecins et se soignera le temps nécessaire. Madame Wagner emmène avec elle une grande fille de l'âge de la tienne, une autre de 15 ans et son dernier fils de 8 ou 9 ans. Je te prie donc instamment de tâcher de les voir, le plus souvent que tu pourras. Il y a là un devoir de reconnaissance de ma part, mais aussi une bonne ouvre à faire. Cette bonne dame est très bonne mais les longs séjours que la carrière de son mari lui ont imposés en pays étrangers l'ont deshabituée de la confession. Je crains que si elle venait à mourir à Paris, elle n'ait personne auprès d'elle pour lui parler des sacrements. Les deux filles sont venues communier dimanche pour obtenir la bénédiction de Dieu sur leur voyage. J'ai été demander hier à Mr Wagner où descendait sa femme. Il n'y a rien encore d'assuré, ils chercheront à Paris. J'ai donné ton adresse, Mr Wagner m'a dit que sa femme irait te voir dès son arrivée. Lui-même lui écrira par le ministère des affaires étrangères où Mme Wagner ira prendre ses lettres, là on saura son adresse. Le P. Fournade a nos lettre par la même voie, il pourrait donc aussi l'y savoir. Si 10 ou 15 jours après la réception de cette lettre, tu n'as pas vu Mme Wagner, prie le P. Fournade de savoir son adresse et va la voir. Il y a là un bonne ouvre à faire. Cette bonne Dame est sans famille, sans parents à Paris, tu pourras lui rendre service. Que ta fille rende aux deux siennes tous ceux qu'elle pourra. Si tu fais connaissance avec elles, tu pourras y envoyer Mme Colombel et son fils, et la mère St Paul &... Mr Maignot nous est revenu. Il m'a fait vos commissions. Ta fille a reçu des couleurs. Tu sais ce que sont devenus tes livres, on en finit actuellement la lecture au réfectoire chez les mères. Elles t'en remercient bien. Adieu chère et bonne sour, je vous embrasse tous bien fort. Ton frère, Aug. M. Colombel s.j. » Cette lettre a été publié avec quelques autres sur le blog du Bibliomane Moderne le 14 octobre 2021. Elles apportent un éclairage particulièrement intéressant sur le développement des missions jésuites en Chine et à Shanghai en particulier. [242]

Reverend William Gilpin 1724- 804 was an English artist Anglican cleric schoolmaster and author best known as one of the originators of the idea of the picturesque style of landscape painting. In 1768 Gilpin published his popular "Essay on Prints" where he defined the picturesque as"that kind of beauty which is agreeable in a picture" and began to expound his "principles of picturesque beauty" based largely on his knowledge of landscape painting. During the late 1760s and 1770s Gilpin traveled extensively in the summer holidays and applied these principles to the landscapes he saw committing his thoughts and spontaneous sketches to notebooks. This particular watercolor study features the High Force waterfall at the River Tees in Durham England with two figures in the foreground surrounded by lush landscape. Gilpin brought attention to the area with his sketching journals influencing tourism and commenting on the sublime and beauty of nature. Bright and unmarred original painting. No visible wear.
