Cardinal Armand Jean du Plessis, Duke of Richelieu (1585-1642), commonly referred to as Cardinal Richelieu was a French clergyman and statesman. He was consecrated as a bishop in 1607 and was appointed Foreign Secretary in 1616. Richelieu soon rose in both the Catholic Church and the French government, becoming a cardinal in 1622, and King Louis XIII chief minister in 1624. He remained in office until his death in 1642; he was succeeded by Cardinal Mazarin, whose career he had fostered.
Jean-Joseph Leon Fauret (1853-1955) was a French artist born in southwest France; he was a student of A. Dupuy in the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Bordeaux, then became a student of JP Laurens, Benjamin Constant and Gabriel Ferrier at the Juian Academy. He became a member of the French Artist Society in 1897 after he received a third place finish in 1896. Listed in the Benezit.
