At a price three times higher than the estimated price, the letter written by Sarl Bodller at a young age was sold, in which he announced his intention to commit suicide.
The letter "caught" the 234 000 euros.
The first auction of Osenat was between 60,000 and 80,000 euros, according to information provided by the RES-EIA. The letter written by Bodller in June 1845 and addressed to Jean-Dieu now belongs to a private French collector.
"When Miss Lebanner gives you this letter, I'll be dead (…) A suicide because I can not live anymore, it's unbearable to see how tired I am of sleeping and waking up" wrote the 24-year-old poet. In fact, he tried to end his life with a knife, but he did not do it. He lived another 22 years and died in 1867 of syphilis.
At the same auction, other Bondler letters will be sold, as well as letters that sent him personalities of 19th century French letters and crafts. The letter of the painter Eugène Delacroix has already been purchased by the Delacroix museum for 7,540 euros.
