 "The not-so-Holy Mary" - Jean Fouquet - Reading, Essays - Ars Comica in Art History
Far from the conventional, pious image of the "Mater Dolorosa", Fouquet's unusual Madonna displays the features of Agnes Sorel, also known as "La Belle Agnès", a popular courtesan at the court of the French king Charles VII, whose sexual favors were equally shared by the king and his royal secretary, Etienne Chevalier.
Rarely, in art history, the icon of the Holy Mary coexists with a kind of "breast-implant voluptuousness" as in the case of Jean Fouquet's "The Virgin and Child", part of the Melun diptych now divided between Antwerp and Berlin.
Much has been made of this Italian journey, the influence of which can be detected in the perspective essays and Classical architecture of his subsequent works, but the strongly sculptural character of his painting, which was deeply rooted in his native tradition, did not succumb to Italian influence.

 French Renaissance - Examples
There are also throughout France, both in town and country, numerous Renaissance buildings of varying degrees of importance, such as the House of Agnes Sorel, Orleans, the Hotel de Bourgtheroulde, Rouen, and the Hotel de Ville, Beaugency, a beautiful instance of municipal architecture.
In French country houses of this period, of which the Chateau de Bury is typical, the internal court, originally designed for security, was retained ; whereas in England, after the time of Henry VII, the closed court had become an exception.
The earliest indications of Renaissance in France, as in England, occur in sepulchral monuments, pulpits, portals, and fittings of existing Gothic churches, such as the Tomb of Louis XII (A.D. 1515) in S. Denis Cathedral (p.
