## Bio

Madeleine of Valois was born in August 1520, a daughter of the French crown. The Treaty of Rouen bound her future to Scotland's King James V, but French officials balked: she was already visibly unwell. The wedding went ahead anyway at Notre-Dame in January 1537. She crossed to Scotland in May. Six weeks later she was dead, not yet seventeen. The Scots called her the Summer Queen — not for brightness, but for brevity.
