EDITORS COMMENTS
Claude, Daughter of Francis I, Duke of Brittany, was the wife of King Francis I of France (r. 1515-1547). Born in 1499, Claude was the eldest daughter of King Charles VIII of France's sister, Anne de Beaujeu, and her husband, Duke Francis I of Brittany. In 1514, at the age of fifteen, she was betrothed to the future King Francis I, who was then the Duke of Orléans. Their marriage took place in 1515, and Claude became the Queen of France. Claude was known for her beauty, intelligence, and piety. She was a devoted wife and mother, bearing ten children to King Francis I. Tragically, only four of them survived to adulthood. Claude was also a patron of the arts and supported the arts and literature, particularly the works of Rabelais and Ronsard. During her husband's reign, Claude played an important role in the political life of the kingdom. She acted as regent during her husband's absences and represented him at various diplomatic events. In 1524, King Francis I was captured at the Battle of Pavia, and Claude was left to rule in his stead. She managed to maintain order and prevent rebellion, but the kingdom was plunged into financial crisis. After her husband's release from captivity in 1526, Claude resumed her role as Queen consort. She continued to support the arts and patronage and was known for her generosity and charitable works. Claude died in 1524, at the young age of twenty-five, leaving behind a legacy as a beloved and respected queen of France. This image of Claude, dressed in the robes of the Order of the Annunciation, is a testament to her status as a royal figure and a symbol of the French monarchy during the Renaissance period.
