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. Printed LS in French, signed “Ch. Mau. Talleyrand,” one page, 7 x 9, Revolutionary letterhead, April 5, 1799. Printed letter to Citizeness Marie Buscailhon. In part (translated): “I inform you, Citizeness, that your Certificate of Noninscription on the lists of the Emigres has reached me, stamped with the visa of the Ministry of Police and that you will definitely be put on the list of Citizens who remained faithful to our Country provided that you've justified your residency, which I will verify…if you haven't sent me the certificates, send them to me…to confirm your residency.” Intersecting folds, and some scattered light toning and soiling, otherwise fine condition.
