Emouvant manuscrit de jeunesse, a single 1845 French autographed two-page manuscript by Philippe d'Orléans, original language French, origin France, in good condition.
Description from the seller
Louis-Philippe-Albert d'ORLÉANS (1838-1894).
« History of France - Main events of the 13th century ».
Autograph assignment apparently written by Louis-Philippe-Albert d'Orléans, eldest son of Ferdinand. December 15, 1845. 2 pages quarto.
When his father died accidentally in 1842, Philippe was only four years old. He thus became, for the Orleanists, the heir to the crown. After the French Revolution of 1848 and the abdication of his grandfather Louis-Philippe, his supporters regarded him as the pretender to the throne of France under the name “Philippe VII.”
A precise annotation: “The Prince did this devoir by himself, without being aided by my questions, and without any help, neither for the order of the facts nor for the dates nor for the spelling. He could have related, likewise, the main events of the preceding centuries.” Small tears with no loss of text.
"1202 1204 4th Crusade of the Latin Empire of Constantinople.
1203 Condemnation of John Lackland and confiscation of the provinces he held on the continent. …
1259 Saint Louis returns to Henry III several provinces acquired by Philip Augustus."
Provenance: Mirabaud Mercier, auction house in Paris
Careful packing
Return accepted
