"MIOMANDRE GRAU SALA Written on water n°3/20 original drawing rejected"

  

The book "Écrit sur de l'eau" was published in 1908, at the author's expense, in five hundred copies by a Marseille publishing house: Le Feu, directed by Émile Sicard. When the verdict signed by Léon Hennique, president of the academy, was announced, only a small dozen of the five hundred copies remained, and they sold out within an hour.
