Florence Hasard Letters To Sophie

A bundle of letters was found amongst Florence’s former lover’s legacy - in Sophie La Rosière’s studio in Nogent Sur Marne, France. These almost illegible writings can now undoubtedly be attributed to Florence because comparable notes with her handwritings were found in Wisconsin.
