Madame de Sevigne, also known as Marie de Rabutin-Chantal, was a renowned French epistolary writer who captivated readers with her heartfelt letters to her beloved daughter, Madame de Grignan. Born in 1626 and departing this world in 1696, she left an indelible mark on literature. In the portraits that immortalize her essence, Madame de Sevigne is depicted wearing a skull cap adorned with delicate bows. Her hair cascades in elegant ringlets framing her face like a crown of beauty. One can only imagine the grace and charm she exuded while donning such regal attire. Her daughter, Francoise-Marguerite de Sevigne, Comtesse de Grignan, is portrayed alongside her mother in some depictions. With pearls adorning her own ringlet-adorned tresses and dressed in a resplendent green silk mantua gown embellished with gold bows and lace sleeves, she radiates sophistication befitting of their noble lineage. A scarlet brocade petticoat peeks out from beneath the train of her dress—a vibrant symbol of opulence. Engravings capture the likeness of Marie Rabutin Chantal herself—the Marquise of Sevigne—showcasing not only her literary prowess but also the poise that made her an influential figure during those times. Chromolithographs further bring to life this remarkable woman whose words continue to inspire generations even today. The Residence stands as a testament to the elegance and grandeur that surrounded this esteemed writer's life—an engraving capturing its splendor transports us back to an era filled with refinement and cultural richness. Even humorous illustrations pay homage to Madame De Sevigne's legacy; Le Rire presents an artistic portrayal showcasing both wit and creativity through color lithography.
