Angélique Paulet

Angélique Paulet (1592–1651) was a French singer, musician and actress, known as one of the habitués of the famous literary salon of Catherine de Vivonne, marquise de Rambouillet, where she was called La Lionne rousse^[1] and La belle Lionne because of her red hair and proud poise. She often performed at the assemblies of the salon by singing and playing the lute.
