Description
On Christmas night, 1807, Lafayette lost his wife Adrienne. Her last words were whispered into his ear: “I am yours entirely.” Je suis toute à vous. He walled off the entrance to her room, a sanctuary only accessible through a small, secret door through which he “alone disappeared on certain days of the year to be with her”.
"I will never recover. For thirty-four years of a marriage in which her love, her goodness, the greatness, the tenderness, the goodness of her soul honored my life, I grew so accustomed to all that she was for me that she became an indistinguishable element of my own existence…I knew I loved her a great deal, that I needed her, but it is only in losing her that I have been able to separate myself from what is left of me for the rest of a life which had once seemed to me so full and will now forever be empty of happiness and comfort."
