Chester Beatty

Chester Beatty
Dublin, Ireland

There are many letters in the Archives in which Beatty describes his trips to Le Mont Dore for ‘the cure’. The clear, mountain air at this resort in central France was ideal for his respiratory ailments. In this postcard to his brother, William Gedney (in New York) Beatty wrote: ‘Dear Will, This is the great shopping street in Mont Dore. No chance to find any manuscripts. Aff[ectionately] yours, Chester’. Photo Roger [studio], 3, rue Badat, Nice
