Condition Report

Precious autograph letter of the Queen of Poland, Maria Luisa of Gonzaga-Nevers, addressed to Cardinal Santacroce in Rome. The letter refers to the serious revolt by a part of the Polish army, which broke out because of the Queen's attempt to make the crown hereditary in the Duke of Enghien, her nephew, and for the non-payment of salary. The revolt was resolved with the pact of Jaworow of July 3, 1663: two high Catholic priests contributed to the payment of the army, committing the silverware of the churches. Maria Luisa of Gonzaga-Nevers, daughter of Charles I of Gonzaga, duke of Mantua, was a consort of two Polish kings: Ladislaus IV and from 1649 Giovanni II Casimiro. When the Swedes invaded Poland and the king had to take refuge in Silesia, Maria Luisa organized the defense of Krakow, crossed the country with few soldiers, tried to enter Warsaw in July 1656, reached her husband and with the example revived the Poles, with the foresight he weakened the Swedish situation and obtained the mediation of Louis XIV for peace (1660). His vain attempt to make the crown hereditary in the duke of Enghien, his nephew, instigated her husband to a fierce condemnation of the opponents. The addressee of the letter should be Marcello Santacroce, 1619-1674, appointed cardinal in 1652.
