Anne Genevieve of Bourbon-Conde, Duchess of Longueville, 'Anne de Bretagne', (early 19th century). Creator: Georges Jacques Gatine.


Anne Genevieve of Bourbon-Conde, Duchess of Longueville, (early 19th century). Anne Genevieve de Bourbon-Conde (1619-1679) was the daughter of Henri II de Bourbon, Prince of Conde and Charlotte-Marguerite de Montmorency. In 1642 she married Henri II d'Orleans, Duke of Longueville, who was Governor of Normandy and a widower twice her age. She came to prominence in court circles after her brother, Louis, the Great Conde, won the Battle of Rocroi in 1643. Disgraced after her involvement in the Fronde, the rebellion and civil war that broke out in France in 1648-1653, she was later pardoned by Louis XIV.
