Martha Bibescu


Born

January 29, 1889

Died
November 28, 1973


Martha Bibescu (also known as the Princess Marthe Bibesco) was a Romanian-French writer of the Belle Époque. Bibesco's papers are at the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin.
Born Marta Lucia Lahovary (also spelled Lahovari) in Bucharest as the third child of Ioan Lahovary and Princess Emma Mavrocordat, Marthe spent her childhood at the Lahovary family estates in Balotești and the fashionable French sea-resort of Biarritz. On her first introduction into society, in 1900, she met Crown Prince Ferdinand, the heir apparent to the Romanian throne, but after a secret engagement of one year, Marthe married at seventeen Prince George III Valentin Bibescu (Bibesco), scion of one of the country's prestigious aristocratic families.

“Jocul, ispravit mereu printr-o cazatura, nu era decat o poveste care anunta viitorul. Asa cum sunt toate jocurile copilariei: marionetele ne arata cat de scurta si de tulburata ne e viata, de-a v-ati ascunselea ne invata cum se cauta emotiile, Inelus-invartecus, cat ai de alergat ca sa-ti indeplinesti dorintele, iar de-a baba oarba, dragostea oarba si dibuitul.”
Martha Bibescu, Catherine-Paris

“Isi schimbase clasa sociala, dar nu si inima; nimic mai simplu decat sa traiesti neinsemnat cand nu esti asa.”
Martha Bibescu, Catherine-Paris

“Parintii cei buni niciodata nu s-au grabit sa le spuna copiilor ca le-au daruit si moartea cand le-au dat viata, si nici cum au aparut pe lume.”
Martha Bibescu, Catherine-Paris
