Highly skilled and influential diplomat (1754–1838) who served the French government from the reign of Louis XVI through that of Louis-Philippe, the last King of France. In the month-long period between the fall of Napoleon and the return of Louis XVIII in early 1814, Talleyrand headed the provisional government of France, making him, if only briefly, the most powerful man in the nation. LS in French, signed “Ch. Mau Tallyrand” one page, 7 x 9.25, Republique Francais letterhead, 1799. As Minister of Foreign Affairs Talleyrand writes to French consular officials. In part (translated): “By decree…the designations General Consul, Consul, and Vice-Consul in foreign countries are abolished and replaced by: General Commissioner, Commissioner, and Sub-Commissioner…In dealing with the authorities of the country in which you reside you will continue to bear the title you have had up to now; but in your relations either with me, or with your colleagues, or with any and all French authorities…you will assume the new title which the decree has assigned to you.” Scattered light foxing, a central horizontal fold, and some light wrinkles and creases, otherwise fine condition.
