APOLLINAIRE, Guillaume (1880-1918)
Le poète assassiné. Paris : Bibliothèque des curieux, 1916.

Envoi autographe signé de l'auteur à la collectionneuse et mécène chilienne Eugenia Errázuriz :

"A Madame Errazuris
Hommage respectueux et souvenir de
Guillaume Apollinaire"

Eugenia Errázuriz (1860-1951) arriva à Paris en 1882, où elle se lia à l'avant-garde artistique, dont Max Jacob, Cendrars ou Cocteau. Elle vécut également à Biarritz, où elle reçut Picasso pendant sa lune de miel, juste après son mariage avec Olga Khokhlova. Eugenia Errázuriz passa la fin sa vie dans l'ordre franciscain, revêtue d'un habit de bonne soeur dont il était dit qu'il avait été dessiné par Coco Chanel. A. Canseco-Jerez, Le mécénat de Eugenia Huici de Errázuriz et Lettres d'Eugenia Errázuriz à Pablo Picasso, pp. 7 à 12.

La publication du Poète assassiné marque le retour d'Apollinaire sur le devant de scène littéraire, après une longue convalescence suite à sa blessure à la tête par éclat d'obus le 17 mars 1916. Il corrige les épreuves du recueil depuis son lit d'hôpital, et un banquet sera organisé le 31 décembre en son honneur.
