EDITORS COMMENTS
Anne Marie Bigot, better known as Madame Cornuel, was a prominent French lady of high society during the 17th century. Born in 1605, she lived through some of the most turbulent and transformative periods in French history. Madame Cornuel's life was marked by elegance, refinement, and a keen sense of fashion. This stunning portrait, captured in an exquisite print from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases her timeless beauty and sophisticated style. Her elegant attire, adorned with intricate lace and sumptuous fabrics, reflects the opulence and extravagance of the French court during the reign of Louis XIV. Despite her privileged upbringing, Madame Cornuel was known for her intelligence, wit, and compassion. She was a patron of the arts and a generous philanthropist, using her influence and resources to support various charitable causes. Her salon, a gathering place for the intellectual and artistic elite of Paris, was a hub of intellectual discourse and cultural exchange. Madame Cornuel's life was not without its challenges, however. She witnessed the devastating effects of the Fronde rebellion, which threatened the monarchy and the social order. She also experienced the loss of her husband, who died young, leaving her to raise their children alone. Despite these hardships, Madame Cornuel remained a steadfast and resilient figure in French society. Her legacy as a patron of the arts, a philanthropist, and a beloved member of the French court continues to inspire and captivate historians and art lovers alike. This beautiful portrait, a testament to her enduring beauty and grace, serves as a reminder of her indelible impact on French history.
