Transcription of the Letter of Jean Perréal painter of Madame to Maitre Loys Baranger, first secretary and Master of the registers of Madame à Bourg, relative to the construction and decoration in sculpture of the Church of Brou. Notebook of 6 ff., copy XIXe s. Unbound. Size : 205 x 315 mm. This letter is listed among the nine known letters of Jean Perréal : "Letter to Louis Barangier, secretary of Marguerite of Austria, dated Lyon, January 4, 1511". Very long letter, essential for the history of art and the Church of Brou [Royal Monastery of Brou in Bourg-en-Bresse]. The original (the authenticity of which had been disputed) was in 1963 preserved in the Lugt Collection (on the history of the successive provenances of the original, see Pradel (1963), pp. 152153; reproduction of part of the letter plate III of Pradel's article). In 1963, this letter is still in private hands. On the correspondence of Jean Perréal, see the article by P. Pradel, "Les autographes de Jean Perréal", in Bibliothèque de l'Ecole des Chartes, year 1963, 121, pp. 132186.
