'''Louise Poitelon du Tarde''', vicomtesse de Lezay-Marnésia (1826-1891), was a French courtier. She served as lady-in-waiting (''[[dame de Palais]]'') to the empress of France, [[Eugénie de Montijo]].
After the introduction of the [[Third Empire]], she was appointed to be one of the ladies-in-waiting to the new empress. The ladies-in-waiting appointed to the new empress consisted of a ''Grand-Maitresse'' or senior lady-in-waiting ([[Anne Debelle, Princesse d'Essling]]), a deputy or ''[[dame d'honneur]]'' ([[Pauline de Bassano]]) and six (later twelve) ''[[Dame du Palais]]'', most of whom were chosen from among the acquaintances to the empress prior to her marriage, and who alternated in fullfilling the daily duties. <ref>Carette Madame: ''[https://ift.tt/3h1dzw0 Recollections of the court of the Tuileries]'' (1890)</ref>
She was married to [[Albert-Magdelaine-Claude de Lezay-Marnésia]]. She was described as "a person of remarkable elegance and posessed a wonderfully beautiful figure."<ref>Carette Madame: ''[https://ift.tt/3h1dzw0 Recollections of the court of the Tuileries]'' (1890)</ref> She often accompanied her husband on his diplomatic missions, and consequently she did not attend court as often as the other dame du palais, and in fact "passed but little time in her own house".<ref>Carette Madame: ''[https://ift.tt/3h1dzw0 Recollections of the court of the Tuileries]'' (1890)</ref>
==Legacy==
She belongs to the ladies-in-waiting depicted with Eugenie in the famous painting ''The Empress Eugenie Surrounded by her Ladies in Waiting'' by [[Franz Xaver Winterhalter]] from 1855.
