From the Sophie Duvernoy’s estate

We are offering for sale a substantial corpus of letters, manuscripts and photographs by the singer-songwriter from Sète. Among this collection are the manuscripts of iconic songs such as L’Orage, Fernande and Les Trompettes de la renommée. Numerous letters and notes addressed to his housekeeper, with whom he shared a mutual affection, offer a rare glimpse into the intimacy of his daily life.

Preserving and passing on

Holding an original letter or manuscript is to draw closer to its author and their era, to perceive their thoughts and emotions. These documents convey a unique voice and bring to life a genuine, tangible human story.
