Handwritten letter in Cyrillic from Dimitri Stelletsky to Sofia Leonidovna Bark on 31 March 1942 from La Napoule, during the occupation of the South of France: «Christ is Risen. Dear Sophia Leonidovna, I send you and to your dear family my best wishes for the Great feast of Easter... Here comes Easter once again, and this time in my life - without a red egg, without a slice of kulich and a crumb of the quark Easter cake! But tomorrow I am going to Cannes, where I will stay on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - so I will be present in all Easter services in the church (...) D. Stelletsky»
