Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Madame Récamier: And Her Friends There are few more interesting figures in the social life of the nineteenth century than that of Madame Récamier. Distinguished alike for her beauty, her virtue, her charm of manner, and her goodness of heart, she reigned for upwards of fifty years the almost undisputed queen of Parisian society. "One cannot expect to find in future times," says her friend, the Duchesse d´Abrantes "a woman like her - a woman whose friendship has been courted by the most remarkable persons of the age; a woman whose beauty has brought to her feet all the men who have once set eyes upon her; whose love has been the object of universal desire, yet whose virtue has remained pure; a woman whose unsullied reputation never suffered from the attacks of jealousy or envy; a woman who lost none of the affections which had been pledged to her, because in her days of gaiety and splendour she had the merit of being always ready to sacrifice her own enjoyments to afford consolation - which no one could do more sweetly and effectually - to any friend in distress.
