Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Lettre du 28 septembre 1781 (de Münster) : « Votre non plus ultra est toujours enfermé hors les moments où il sert, et dans le meme ordre que lorsque vous me l’avez pretté. Si les medailles que d’Orville a donné au public dans son ouvrage, c.à.d. si les originaux qu’elles doivent representer ne valent rien, cela me donne une grande idée de son gout grecque, car chacune de ses medailles est ou semble être une pierre gravée, tant elles m’ont paru belles. Au reste, mon cher Socrate, lorsque vous vous melez de dessiner, surtout de copier, vous faites comme d’Orville, vous savez mettre et vous mettez l’elegance grecque partout, meme là où il ne s’en trouve pas l’ombre dans l’original, car je me souviens encore qu’un jour vous fites un Appollon de l’Envie que surement vous n’aviez (d’ordinaire) pas de disposition à flatter ». (Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster, Gallitzin-Nachlaß ; Sluis 2014, lettre I.245, p. 283).
