Excerpt from Recherches sur les Collections des Richelieu
Le plus grand ministre de la France fut aussi le plus illustre de ses amateurs. Sa collection est moins célèbre, sa physionomie moins en évidence que celle de Mazarin; il n'a pas eu la bonne for tune de rencontrer un marquis de Laborde pour écrire son histoire, ni un duc d'aumale pour pu blier son inventaire; mais sa place n'en est pas moins la première. Mazarin est son élève, comme Colbert est l'élève de Mazarin; Richelieu les a précédés et leur a montré le chemin.
