Joanna of Constantinople and her husband Thomas of Savoy by Edmond de Busscher.
The eldest daughter of Emperor Baldwin of Constantinople and Mary of Champagne, her parents died in the Crusades in 1205. She was raised in Paris under the guardianship of King Philip Augustus, who married her to Ferrand of Portugal in 1212. The latter soon turned against his French suzerain, provoking a war that ended in the defeat of Bouvines and the imprisonment of the young count. Jeanne then governs Flanders and Hainaut alone. She had to face the rivalry of her sister Marguerite, then the sedition of her counties led by an impostor who claimed to be her father. At the end of this civil war, her husband Ferrand is released, but dies shortly afterwards. She married Thomas of Savoy in her second marriage.

The Life Course of Women- Aristocratic Women of Champagne and Marriage.
It is difficult to determine when most well-born girls left the parental household. A few marriage contracts of girls betrothed at very young ages required them to he raised in the households of their prospective husbands in anticipation of marriage. Alix of Grandpré was about two when placed in the Joinville household, where she spent ten years before marrying fifteen-year-old Jean of Joinville in 1240. Jeanne of Champagne was the same age when betrothed to one of Philip III's sons and deposited at the royal court until, nine years later, she married the future Philip IV, then fifteen. Both couples were raised virtually as brother and sister, both appeared to have delayed cohabitation after marriage until the wives reached their late teens, and both had very close marriages. Jean of Joinville remembered Alix* after their twenty-seven-year marriage as " my dear companion Alix " and endowed eternally burning candles next to her tomb. Philip IV, similarly affected byJeanne 's death after twenty-one years of marriage, commemorated her in numerous benefactions.
The surrender of young girls in anticipation of marriage was known to carry risk. Alix of Grandpré's mother tried to protect her by inserting a clause in the marriage contract requiring Alix 's return to her or her brother if the marriage did not occur. Thibaut IV refused to hand over his two-year old daugther Blanche until her prospective husband, the son of Odo II of Burgundy, turned fourteen and was capable of giving a canonically valid consent to marriage; at that time, said the count, he would deliver his daughter. The count's caution was justified, for the young man later refused his consent. Thibaut had contracted to deliver his daughter for a certain marriage, not a possible one, and so young Blanche remained at home until, at twelve, she married Jean, the future count of Brittany (1239-1305). Even then, Thibaut took the precaution of depositing with the monks at Preuilly the two key documents pertaining to Blanche's marriage: the papal bull of dispensation for consanguinity, and the dower letter sealed by the groom's father. Margaret of Dampierre, too, refused to hand over her daughter for marriage until a dower had been assigned, in effect, until her daughter had been made a legitimate wife by dower. The absence of clauses in marriage contracts specifying the early delivery of betrothed girls suggests that most well-born girls remained with their natal families until marriage or entry into a convent. That is why so many daughters appear with their parents in the records of property transactions, first as silent witnesses, then as formal consenters to the acts of their parents.
It is not known how many girls entered convents or at what ages, although it appears that they generally did so in their teens, at about the age of marriage. For girls to be married, marriage contracts often tied the date of marriage to their nubility, without however explaining whether nubility was defined as a physical state or as the age of a canonically valid marriage. Gislebert of Mons reports that the proposed marriage between Henry I's daughter Marie and the young Baldwin of Hainaut would occur when both reached "a marriageable age" (ad annos nubile), without further explanation. Other contracts speak of etas in the sense of either physical state or chronological age. Jeanne of Champagne's marriage contract with the future Philippe IV uses etas in both senses: the couple will give their consent "when they reach the minimum age (in etate sufficienti) for contracting a betrothal" and will marry "when Jeanne attains a marriageable state (ad nubilem etatem)". Whether Jeanne was nubile when she married nine years later, in the middle of her eleventh year, is uncertain, for she had her first child five years later at sixteen. Ultimately, the date of her marriage had less to do with her physical state than with Philippe III's need for his son's marriage as soon as possible.
Of the seven countesses of Champagne who married between 1164 and 1270, one married at thirteen, two at fifteen or sixteen, two at eighteen or nineteen, and two at twenty, for a median age of about eighteen at first marriage. The best documented cases of aristocratic women yield a similar pattern: a few married as early as twelve, but most married in their mid-teens. Marie of Montmirail, Emeline of Broyes, Jeanne of Dampierre, and Alix of Grandpré were married by fourteen or fifteen. Simon of Joinville's eldest daughter Elisabeth married in her late teens, while Agnès of Choiseul and Agnès of Bar-le-Duc married in their early twenties. Even desirable heiresses were not necessarily married off at the minimum age. Petronilla of Bar-sur-Seine was eighteen when her guardian uncle married her to Hugh of Le Puiset and surrendered custody of her inheritance. Agathe of Pierrefonds, heiress after her brother's death, married Conon, count of Soissons, at about nineteen while still under her mother's custody. That was the same age that Marie of France married Henry the Liberal, after spending ten years in the Benedictine convent of Avenay being educated and acculturated under the tutelage of a magistra, Alix of Mareuil. Henry, at thirty-seven, had waited more than twelve years after betrothing Marie. These examples suggest that it was not the minimum canonical age of marriage that determined when a well-born woman first married but rather her family's sense of her readiness for marriage and the availability of a suitable husband.
Indirect evidence suggests that the girls who married at a very young age often delayed cohabitation after marriage. The butler Anselm II of Traînel apparently left his bride in her father's custody out of respect for her tender age, a deferral that cost him both his wife and her dowry. Alix of Grandpré, who was betrothed as an infant and spent ten years in the Joinville household before marrying Jean of Joinville at about twelve, apparently did not begin to cohabit with him until she was seventeen, after five years of marriage; that was the year that Jean turned twenty-one and was knighted, and his widowed mother Béatrice left Joinville castle. Alix had her first child two years later at about nineteen and her second at twenty. Even Countess Jeanne seems to have delayed cohabiting with Philip IV after their marriage in 1284; she had resided at the royal court since infancy, married at eleven, but had her first child at sixteen.

* I think Joinville said "my dear companion Alix" about his second wife Alix de Reynel, as reported by Evergates earlier in the book.

Art of the Day: Leaf from a Book of Hours: a Funeral Service
In the margins of this page are hybrid Franciscan and Dominican nuns, clerics, a Franciscan seated opposite a nun, and a dog pursuing a hare. This Book of Hours was created in northeastern France in the early fourteenth century, possibly for the marriage of Louis I of Châtillon (d. 1346) and Jeanne of Hainaut, as the Châtillon de Blois arms are depicted on fols. 19r and 81v, and the arms of Hainaut also appear in the borders, including in conjunction with the Châtillon arms on fol. 19r. The manuscript is exceptional for the abundance of drolleries and lively hybrids that inhabit nearly every page. Stylistically these images have been linked to a workshop in the Artois region, possibly based in Arras, and related manuscripts were traced by Carl Nordenfalk in his 1979 publication. Although the manuscript is incomplete, lacking its calendar and likely some images, its surviving illumination provides an excellent example of the playfulness of art during this period.
