MARIE LOUISE DE LA "OUIDA" RAMÉE
Autograph Sentiment signed by the 19th century novelist
Autograph sentiment signed, circa 1904: "Believe me every your/Sympathizing well-wisher/Ouida", 1 page, 7x1¾. Autograph letter fragment on verso, where she has written "present. 'Silver & Lemon' was pub. 20 years ago." Ouida was the pen name for an English author, born Maria Louise Ramé (1839-1908). (She added the "de la" and extra "e" to make her name more dramatic.) She was famed not only for her novels, short stories and children's books but for her lavish parties, first in London and after 1874 in Italy. She wrote more than 40 books, mostly adventures and historical romances. Among the best remembered are Under Two Flags (1867) and A Dog of Flanders, both of which were later filmed - the latter many times. She was an early advocate of animal rights. Despite the earnings from her books and a government pension, she lived beyond her means and died in poverty. The Silver Christ and a Lemon Tree, referenced in this letter, was published in 1894.  One-half inch tear at left edge. Mounting tape remnant on verso touches three letters of text. Bisecting verical fold. Otherwise, fine condition.
