Catalogue Note
Les armes sont celles des princes de Caraman-Chimay pour François-Joseph-Philippe de Riquet de Caraman, prince de Chimay (PAris, 1771, Toulouse 1843). Il épousa le 22 août 1805 Thérésa Cabarrus, célèbre pour sa beauté. Son comportement pendant la révolution française lui obtint le nom de Notre-Dame de Themidor. Avant d'épouser en 1805 le prince de Chimay, elle épousa d'abord le marquis de Fontenay puis le célèbre Tallien.
