She married King Charles VII in 1422 at Bourges, and became queen consort of France. Her husband's success in the Hundred Years War owed a great deal to the support he received from Marie's family, notably from her mother Yolande of Aragon. SAlthough Marie and Charles had twelve children, her husband's affection was primarily directed towards his mistress, Agnès Sorel. In the drawing seen below, at Court her chaplain Robert Blondel presents her with the allegorical Treatise of the "Twelve Perils of Hell," which he composed for her (1455).
