Antique print titled 'MARIE DE HAUTEFORT' Original antique print of Marie de Hautefort.
Marie de Hautefort (1616, 1691), was a French noble and lady-in-waiting, a trusted confidante and adviser of King Louis XIII of France. They did not have a sexual relationship and she was thereby a favorite rather than a royal mistress. She was also a personal friend of Queen Anne of Austria.
Marie de Hautefort was born to Marquis Charles de Hautefort and Renée du Bellay. Her maternal grandmother Catherine le Voyer de Lignerolles was a lady-in-waiting to the Queen Dowager Marie de' Medici, and she made the acquaintance of the king in the daily gathering in the drawing room of Queen Anne, where he fell in love with her.
This print originates from ' LA MÉSANGÈRE, Pierre and LANTÉ, Louis Marie. Costumes des Femmes Françaises du XIIe au XVIIIe siècle. Paris: Librairie Charles Tallandier, 1900.
This beautiful work tracing changes in French costume from the 12th to 18th century, stunning folio-sized hand-colored engraved plates depicting period fashions on famous French women who were celebrated for their talent or their beauty in the relevant periods.
