Description

[FRANCE] French Incunabula, 1481, a famous Edict of Louis XI against Jacques de Breze who killed his wife and lover. 4 pages, approx. 6-1/4 x 8". Jacques, grand sénéchal of Normandy, the son of Pierre de Brézé, built in 1470 in Anet, a manor house of brick and stone. This Jacques de Brézé was married to Charlotte of France, daughter of Charles VII and Agnès Sorel and half-sister of Louis XI. The union had a tragic end: In 1477 Jacques surprised his wife, in the manor de Rouvres on the grounds of Anet, in the act of adultery with one of his huntsmen. He murdered them both with more than a hundred sword thrusts. When Louis XI learned of the death of his beloved sister, he became wild with rage, swearing vengeance. The Grand Sénéchal was arrested, held prisoner for a number of years and finally condemned to death, with the confiscation of all his goods. However the sentence was not strictly carried out: the Lord de Brézé saved his head but had to give up all his possessions to the king, who immediately handed them over to Louis de Brézé, his godchild and eldest son of Charlotte. Three years after his accession to the throne, Charles VIII annulled the verdict against Jacques de Brézé and restored to him his former titles and goods. Very rare!!!.
