Marie of Anjou, the wife of Charles VII, has long been judged a timid queen with little ambition. However, the accounts of her Argenterie reveal that she played a role as managerial and as enterprising as her later counterpart, Queen Anne of Brittany. In 1454-55, with no less than 26,586 livres, Marie of Anjou paid a number of artisans for furnishing her apartments in the royal residence of Chinon. These apartments occupied a privileged position on the first floor of the castle, being on the same level as – and thus rivalling – those of Charles VII. In addition to her own apartments, the queen also had a great deal of work done in order to house members of her household, such as her official painter, Henri de Vulcop, as well as having work done on the gardens. From the moment she received the property of Chinon as part of her marriage dowry, the queen remained very attached to the castle and it became her preferred residence in the second half of the fifteenth century.Cairn free access
