Julie d'Angennes
Julie d'Angennes, Duchess of Montausier (1607 - 15 November 1671) was a French courtier. She served as royal governess of Louis, Grand Dauphin in 1661–1664, and Première dame d'honneur to the queen of France, Queen Marie Thérèse, from 1664 until 1671.
Julie d'Angennes was the daughter of Charles d'Angennes, Marquis of Rambouillet and Catherine de Vivonne, marquise de Rambouillet. She played an important role in the famous literary salon of her mother, where she was referred to as Princess Julie and was celebrated as a muse to writers and poets for her beauty and wit.
The Guirlande de Julie (French pronunciation: [ɡiʁlɑ̃d də ʒyli], Julie's Garland) is a unique French manuscript of sixty-one madrigaux, illustrated with painted flowers, and composed by several poets habitués of the Hôtel de Rambouillet for Julie d'Angennes and given to her on her name day in May 1641. The 1641 manuscript was bought by the Bibliothèque nationale de France in 1989 and is now kept in the Département des Manuscrits of the BnF.
For her portrait, thought to be by Claude Deruet, of c. 1640, she posed as the shepherdess Astrea from the popular pastoral novel L'Astrée.
She married Charles de Sainte-Maure, duc de Montausier in 1645.
They had one daughter, Marie-Julie de Sainte-Maure, who married in 1664 with Emmanuel II de Crussol, Duke of Uzès, and had issue.
In 1661–1664, she was governess to the dauphin.
In 1664, she was appointed Première dame d'honneur to the queen. In this position, she is known for the complaisant role she played in assisting the king and his mistresses, though she officially stated her condemnation of the adultery.
During the trip to Flanders, she officially stated her shock at the behavior of Louise de La Vallière, when the affair between her and the king was exposed.
