Anne de Bretagne
Anne de Bretagne is a statue by Jean Debay in Paris’s Luxembourg Gardens, surrounded by sculptures and monuments. The wheelchair-accessible setting places this artwork within a public park known for its calm atmosphere and historical character.
Born in 1477, Anne became Duchess of Brittany and twice Queen of France. She married Charles VIII in 1491, then Louis XII in 1499 after his death. Those marriages formed strategic alliances that influenced French politics, while her faith shaped her cultural and political work. Her patronage supported religious manuscripts and artworks, giving the sculpture a connection to both royal history and artistic production.
Jean Debay’s work presents Anne with a regal presence in the gardens.
