Description
Paoli, Betty (Eigentl. Barbara Anna Glück), Esterr. Writer, journalist and translator (1814-1887). Eigh. Letter m. U. "Betty Paoli". 21/2 p. 8vo. With the envelope. Vienna 20.XI.1887. To the book dealer and autograph collector Hermann Kievy at the Leopold Rosner's bookstore, who had heard that Betty owned autographs by Nicolaus Lenau. She must, however, disappoint him: "... Because I don't have a line from Lenau's hand. You are misreported if you think I was in real intercourse with him. Our personal contact was limited to visiting me a few times. We never got so close to each other that an exchange of letters could have developed from it. The benevolence he showed me and the youthful enthusiasm with which I looked up to him have left no traces of letters behind ..." - Two engraved portraits of the poet and a small newspaper note with the inscription on her grave monument.
