"La Vie de Madame Élisabeth, soeur de Louis XVI, Volume 1" by A. de Beauchesne is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the life and character of Madame Élisabeth, the lesser-known sister of Louis XVI, highlighting her compassion, piety, and role as a figure caught in the tumult of the French Revolution. Through the lens of her familial relationships and personal sacrifices, the narrative reveals the challenges and virtues of her life, setting her apart from other historic figures of the time such as Marie-Antoinette. The opening of this work introduces the context surrounding Madame Élisabeth's life, presenting her as a deeply loving sister and an exceptionally devoted member of the royal family. A letter from the Bishop of Orléans emphasizes her saintly character and the silent nobility that marked her existence as she remained steadfast in her loyalty during the Revolution. We are shown glimpses of her personal relationships with her brother, King Louis XVI, and Queen Marie-Antoinette, and we learn of her commitment to their well-being amid political chaos. The narrative indicates that she was ultimately a victim of the Revolution, illustrating her courage and tragic fate, foreshadowing her eventual execution, which serves as a poignant contrast to her previously sheltered royal life.
