The name of Angélique du Coudray has been somewhat forgotten by history. However, this 18th century midwife was able to revolutionize her profession by developing the first “obstetrics mannequin”. A technical object that made it possible to train thousands of midwives across the kingdom and thus save many lives. Adeline Laffitte and Hervé Duphot tell the fate of the king’s midwife in a comic strip.
