About the Artwork
Le spectacle, etait-ce bien? et à-t-il été raisonnable Lolo? — Lolo! Ne m’en parle pas . . . je dis en etrant: “c’est un enfant de six ans et demi” Voilà-t-il pas que Monsieur s’en va “Non Papa j’ai sept ans passés, je ne suie plus un enfant.” . . . . . Désagréable moutard! Il m’a fallu payer place entière.
How was the show? And was Lolo good?
Don’t talk to me about Lolo! I said as we were going in, “He’s a child of six and a half,” and there he is saying, “No Papa, I’m already past seven; I’m not a child anymore.”. . . . . Lousy kid! I had to pay full price.
