Commentary


Antoine Coiffier de Ruzé, marquis d’Effiat (1581-1632) doit sa carrière à son grand-oncle Martin Ruzé de Beaulieu, secrétaire d’État. Courtisan habile, il est surintendant des mines en 1613 et ambassadeur à Bruxelles en 1619. Fidèle de Richelieu, il devient surintendant des finances en 1626. Homme de guerre en même temps, il est au siège de La Rochelle puis en 1630 au Piémont comme lieutenant général. Maréchal en 1631, il commande en 1632 l’armée avec La Force mais meurt d’une “fièvre pourpre” après avoir confié ses intérêts et son fils, le futur marquis de Cinq-Mars au Cardinal. Il porte de gueules, au chevron ondé d’argent et d’azur de dix pièces, accompagné de trois lionceaux d’or.

Historical background


TOURAINE - GENTRY AND TOWNS

Region of the Turones Celts, Touraine has as main city Turones or Caesarodunum (Tours) under the Romans, of which it is the capital of Lyonnaise IIIe. After the Battle of Vouillé in 507, it passed to the Franks. It became county in the 10th century and the stake of a rivalry between the houses of Anjou and Blois. It was confiscated in 1203 from Jean sans Terre. It became the prerogative of many princes and ended up being attached to the Crown on the death of François d'Alençon in 1584. The city of Tours was one of the favorite residences of Charles VII and Louis XI. In 1870, it hosted the delegation of the National Defense government before being taken by the Bavarians in 1871..
