VERBOOM, René (1891-1955), Belgian poet. Two autograph lette - Lot 70
VERBOOM, René (1891-1955), Belgian poet. Two autograph letters signed, 1 page in-4 and 2 pages in-folio, addressed to George CRETEN, undated. The first one : " Creten Georges, dear aerolith [...] I hope you work with this calm frenzy which is so particular to you. Go ahead, my friend: your duties are up to you: it is very big. For the additional pictures of "Flying Mirrors" [Verboom's work illustrated by Creten]: I suggest : ° an arrow, a woman, a Brabant lion ° a flying fish, a sun, a propeller ° a plane, a swimmer, a sphere. Mix these symbols as you like. Make them into faces. I know they'll be beautiful. ». The second letter relates his future move. The sanatorium depressed his wife, so the doctor advised the countryside. He will settle in a small empty house. He is without money: "I have sent a few letters to three or four prominent people - who protect poetry (it's so easy) but who don't care about poets. "Etc. Beautiful letters.
