Transcription

Life

Yolande was a daughter of King Charles VII of France, "The Victorious," and Marie of Anjou.[1] She was named after her grandmother, Yolande of Aragon. At the age of two, Yolande was betrothed to Louis, Duke of Savoy, the agreement being signed at Tours.[2]

Yolande married Duke Amadeus IX of Savoy in 1452.[3] After her wedding, she brought three chests of books with her.[4] Yolande's husband became duke of Savoy in 1465, making her duchess. Her husband's retiring disposition and epilepsy left her in control of the state,[5] to struggle with the Savoyard barons.

Regency

After the death of her spouse in March 1472, Yolande became regent for her son Philibert until her own death.[6] Like her brother Charles, she was an ally to Charles, Duke of Burgundy, against her own brother Louis XI of France. After the humiliation of Burgundy at the Battle of Grandson in 1476, the duke accused her of being in league with Louis and imprisoned her. After her release, she made peace with her brother and remained on good terms with him until her death. She is said to have been one of the very few women whose intelligence he respected.

Yolanda was the first person in Europe to own a tiger, keeping one in a castle in Turin in 1478.[7]
