  Claude of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Claude of France (14 October 1499 20 July 1524), Queen consort of France and duchess of Brittany in her own right, was the eldest daughter of Louis XII, King of France and Anne, Duchess of Brittany.
As the first wife of Francis I, King of France, she was the mother of King Henry II, King of France, and thus grandmother of the last three kings of the Valois line and also of Elisabeth, Queen of Spain, Claude, Duchess of Lorraine, and Marguerite, the queen of Henry IV, King of France.
Claude, the pawn of so much dynastic maneuvering, was short in stature and afflicted with scoliosis that gave her a small hunched back.

 Claude
Claude Gellee was born in the province of Lorraine in France during the first five years of the 17th century, the exact date of his birth in unknown.
Claude signed his name on the back of these drawings and included either the name of the patron who had commissioned the work or the city to which the painting was being sent.19 In this way, he could insure that his work could not be copied and passed off as an original.
Claude offers us a wonderful example of the different ways in which an artist uses drawings, and the degree to which they not only contribute to finished works of art, but how integral drawings are to an artist's creative process.

Long hailed in Claude's native France as the natural inheritors of the Surrealist legacy (a direct line has been drawn by French critics from Picasso and Braque to Schwitters and Duchamp to Warhol and Pelieu), their works are highly prized and respected.
Claude Pelieu was born in 1934 in Beauchamp, Val D'Oise, France.
During the first part of World War II she lived in the small town of St. Jean de Luz, but, with the entrance of the United States in the war in 1941, she was soon viewed as a suspicious alien and was, for a time, interned in a Nazi prison camp.

 At war with France’s past, by Claude Liauzu
FRANCE “recognises its debt to the women and men who participated in the work carried out by France in its former departments in Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and Indochina and in all the territories formerly under French sovereignty”, according a law adopted by the French parliament on 23 February 2005 (1).
France’s political establishment traditionally supported colonial wars and has reacted to these demands with amnesties, especially for former members of the armed resistance to French withdrawal from Algeria, the Organisation de l’armée secrète (OAS), and with compensation packages for the repatriated.
The immediate priority in France is to overturn the February law, since it is an obstacle to the development of a sense of history that all French people, whatever their ethnic origins, can share.

You most probably know that one of the rules underlying the organization's activity is the obligation that all of its resolutions be accepted unanimously, which is incomprehensible and anachronistic.

 Jean-Claude Killy: France's king of the ski slopes Contemporary Review - Find Articles
It was also the last of village France, with palpable limits, yet freedom from ephemeral diversions.
Killy attended the republican lay school staffed by a tough, but fair instituteur, who gave kids two afternoons a week to ski, and pushed Killy to jump farther and farther when he began competing in other parts of the region.
If one competed against older men, all the while assimilating some of their style, or fractured bones en route to the top, that was part of the process.

 Claude Monet, French Painter
The goal was to capture temporary phenomena, and this was pursued in a systematic manner, according to the laws of optics and complementary color relationships; yet the result was often a sheer celebration of painting itself, an expression of Monet's delight in the colors, textures, and shapes of the landscape.
uring his youth Monet was struck by the constantly changing appearance of sea and sky on the north coast of France, near his native city of Le Havre.
