With great simplicity and sobriety, the piece illustrates the custom, common between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, of using calling cards to convey personal messages, with just a few handwritten words enough to express solidarity and respect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierre de Coubertin (1863–1937) was a French educator, historian, and reformer, recognized as the main ideator of the modern Olympic Games. In 1894, he founded the International Olympic Committee and, two years later, organized the first modern Olympic Games, held in Athens. His legacy extends beyond the sports world, having advocated for sport as an instrument of education, moral development, and rapprochement between peoples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePierre de Coubertin's autograph documents are quite rare and highly valued by collectors. This piece does not draw attention for an elaborate historical content, but precisely for its extreme simplicity: a rare calling card accompanied only by a brief message of condolences. It is an authentic and personal testimony of the founder of the modern Olympic Games, making it an indispensable piece for any collection dedicated to the history of Olympism.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Com certificado de autenticidade e garantia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62825754624159,"sku":null,"price":5000.0,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1945\/8243\/files\/7_2f556bb8-b701-4073-b41b-5af8a8932639.jpg?v=1783440050","url":"https:\/\/glorias.com.br\/en\/products\/cartao-de-visita-com-linha-manuscrita-do-barao-de-coubertin","provider":"Glórias | Autógrafos e Manuscritos Raros","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
