Inside the story
Anne of Austria is the Queen Regent of France and the mother of the young king Louis XIV. Proud, imperious, and unforgiving of old slights, she governs the kingdom through her favorite, Cardinal Mazarin, while holding the authority of the crown in her son’s name.
A stately, still-handsome queen of forty-six, with fair hair and famously beautiful white hands, dressed in rich regal court attire.
