FOOTNOTES:
[1] This last-named castle has also been bequeathed to the French
nation by its owner.
[2] The grandfather of Henri II de Bourbon, husband of the fair
Charlotte de Montmorency.
[3] When the Cardinal de Lorraine, her uncle, suggested to the young
Queen this marriage as political salvation for himself, she exclaimed
ironically, "Truly I am beholden to my uncle. So that it be well with
him, he careth not what becometh of me."
[4] See Plate VII.
[5] According to Brantôme, the Duc d'Anjou was inconsolable after her
death and for a long time wore deepest mourning for her.

[11] Called in Germany "Allerheim" to distinguish it from the battle of
Nördlingen, where the Archduke Ferdinand was victorious over Bernard of
Weimar in 1434.
[12] This stone table is still used as a _rendezvous de chasse_ by the
Duc and Duchesse de Chartres.
[13] He, however, was generally known not as Prince de Condé but as Duc
de Bourbon or Monsieur le Duc.
[14] This brought enormous benefits to the Crown, but was the cause of
the famine in 1768.

[16] The Château d'Enghien, built in 1770, was chiefly used for the
attendants and suites of the illustrious guests who came to Chantilly.

[18] A sketch for the well-known picture of that Saint in the National
Gallery.
[19] There is a certain affinity between this picture and the portrait
in the National Gallery which is said to represent _Ariosto_.
[20] The other is the _Madonna del Connestabile_ now in the Hermitage.

[27] DEAR AND ROYAL BROTHER,
I have just read your appreciative words about me. I write to you
with emotion. You are a prince by birth and have become a man. For
me your Royalty has ceased to be political and is now historical; my
Republican conviction is not disturbed by it. You have contributed to
the greatness of France. And I love you.

[30] This interesting picture was painted at Calais in 1396 on the
occasion of the marriage between Richard II of England and Isabelle,
daughter of the King of France.
[31] The first volume of this MS. is in the British Museum, and
the second with the miniatures of the _Preux de Marignan_ in the
Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris.

[33] Closely allied to the _Ingeburge Psalter_, and likewise
showing English influence, is the _Arsenal_ MS., formerly at the
Sainte-Chapelle, and executed for Blanche Castille, mother of St. Louis.
[34] Cf. p. 168.
[35] It was fortunate indeed that Comte Paul Durrieu had made a
reproduction in phototype from the original _Hours of Turin_ before
they were burnt; for they were by far the most interesting part of
the MS. Some of the miniatures have been attributed to Hubert van
Eyck--namely that portion which in 1417 belonged to Count Hainau, who
is himself represented in one of them arriving with his train on the
shores of the North Sea, where his daughter Jaqueline and her attendant
ladies are awaiting him.

[52] It was in this castle that the Duc de Berry commissioned André
Beauneveu, Pol Limbourg's predecessor, to prepare for him a _Book of
Hours_, subsequently completed with the assistance of Jacquemart de
Hesdin. This MS., which contains a very characteristic portrait of the
_Duke_ himself, is now to be seen in the Library at Brussels. Beauneveu
died in 1413, two years before the Brothers Limbourg appeared upon the
horizon of French Art.
[53] See Plate XXVI.

[71] There is a portrait of the same monarch in a MS. at The Hague

during the Civil War. The Court of Moulins at that time was known as
a centre of art and literature under the auspices of the cultured
daughter of Louis XI.
[87] Among the drawings attributed to Fouquet the _Papal Legate_,
formerly in the Heseltine Collection, is the best known.
[88] Called "of Navarre" because he worked for Marguerite de Valois,
