拍品专文

Marie Thérèse Charlotte, Madame Royale, was the eldest daughter of King Louis XVI of France and Queen Marie Antoinette. She married her cousin, Louis Antoine, Duc d'Angoulême, eldest son of the future king, Charles X. Upon the accession of her father-in-law to the throne in 1824 she became the Dauphine of France. Her reign as Queen of France in 1830 is recorded to have lasted twenty minutes: between the time her father-in-law, Charles X, signed the instrument of abdication and the time her husband signed the same document.
