ANDRIEUX (François-Guillaume-Jean-Stanislas). - Lot 24
ANDRIEUX (François-Guillaume-Jean-Stanislas). Born in Strasbourg, 1759-1833. French poet, playwright and politician. Permanent secretary of the Académie française. L.A.S. "Andrieux" to "Monsieur le Baron" [Baron Dupuytren, chief surgeon of the Hôtel-Dieu de Paris]. S.l., February 21, 1824. 1 page 1/3 small in-4. Address and marks. Blue stamp marks. Small tears. "...I have found, in the academicians to whom I have spoken, excellent dispositions; there is not one who does not esteem you and is not well-intentioned for you; Mr. Boyer's age is the only consideration that one puts in the balance to tip it in his favor. The misfortune we have just had in losing Mr. le Bᵒⁿ Percy, leaves one more place vacant; and I have no doubt that you will be appointed either before or after Mr. Boyer..." Guillaume Dupuytren (1777-1835) was a French anatomist and military surgeon. He left his name to an irreducible contracture of the palm of the hand. Alexis Boyer (1757-1833) was a French anatomist and surgeon. Pierre-François Percy (1754-1825) was a French physician and army surgeon-in-chief during the French Revolution and Empire.
