LORRAINE, Henriette de (1605-1660), daughter... - Lot 100 - Gros & Delettrez
LORRAINE, Henriette de (1605-1660), daughter of François II de Vaudémont, duke of Lorraine and sister of Charles IV of Lorraine. L.A.S. addressed to Jean-Baptiste COLBERT. S.l.n.d. 2 pp. in-4. Central fold very slightly restored. Henriette of Lorraine asks Colbert to intercede in favor of Messieurs de Bragelonne "for a great affair they have in the advice of the King on which depends the division of all their fortune". She asks for Colbert's protection "with all the authority possible, because they are people, so strong in all my interests that I am very happy to have the opportunity to show them how much I take part in theirs [...]. I hope Sir that you will not refuse me this grace [...] ". Beautiful signature.
