EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Charlotte Marguerite de Montmorency, Princess of Conde (1593-1650)" This elegant and captivating handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts Charlotte Marguerite de Montmorency, the illustrious Princess of Conde. Born in 1593, she was the mother of the renowned military leader, the Great Conde. The engraving, created by Edward Hargrave for The Ladys Magazine and Museum of the Belles Lettres, showcases the refined beauty and sophistication of the Princess in her prime. Dressed in the height of 17th-century fashion, Charlotte's attire is a stunning display of opulence and elegance. Her voluminous gown, adorned with intricate lace and embroidery, is a testament to the extravagance of the era. Her elaborate headdress, adorned with pearls and feathers, complements her delicate features and expressive eyes. The delicate shading and attention to detail in the engraving further emphasize the regal and captivating presence of the Princess. Charlotte Marguerite de Montmorency was a woman of great influence and power in her own right. She was the daughter of Henri II de Montmorency, Duke of Montmorency, and Catherine de Vivonne, and was married to Henri II de Bourbon, Prince of Conde, in 1611. The couple had ten children, including the future military leader, Louis II de Bourbon, the Great Conde. Charlotte's life was marked by political intrigue, power struggles, and personal tragedy, making her a fascinating figure in French history. This engraving, produced in 1836 by Dobbs in London, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and elegance of the Princess of Conde and the opulence of the era in which she lived. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the engraving serve as a reminder of the rich history and artistic achievements of the past.
