In Material Culture and Queenship in 14th-century France: The
Testament of Blanche of Navarre (1331-1398) Marguerite Keane
considers the object collection of the long-lived
fourteenth-century French queen Blanche of Navarre, the wife of
Philip VI (d. 1350). This queen's ownership of works of art (books,
jewelry, reliquaries, and textiles, among others) and her
perceptions of these objects is well -documented because she wrote
detailed testaments in 1396 and 1398 in which she described her
possessions and who she wished to receive them. Keane connects the
patronage of Blanche of Navarre to her interest in her status and
reputation as a dowager queen, as well as bringing to life the
material, adornment, and devotional interests of a medieval queen
and her household.
